[Air] Grenchen heli 2010

Hi guys

Went last weekend to a small heli weekend at Grenchen airport here in Switzerland. Not a great deal to see realy, but it started the season off well. Supposed to fly down in a R44 with a couple of friends, but instead, we were lucky to get a ride in an Augusta AS139. Was rather happy.
Weather was bad, windy and wet, but wanted to practice some panning, and these things are ideal for that.

Full gallery HERE Exif intact. 7D and 100-400mm

Enjoy

Very nice shots. Love the prop on the Jet Ranger.

Excellent shots. The flat sky made the highlights on them look great.

You shouldn't have left this one out of the thread:

Thanks guys.

Added that one Frank.

Would liked to have gotten more blur on the rotors, but I was bloody freezing Would not have held it steady any slower.

Chris,
Great shots of great helis. Keep 'em coming.

Thanks, I'll try, but no more shows until May. And my through the window shots from work are usually just the jets. Hope to get some more when I go flying in the R44.

Great shots, love the rotor blur

Thanks aviator. I'm just happy they don't look dead stick

Good set, the Huey is a UH-1H. They still look great compared to more modern helicopters.

Very nice

Thanks again guys
