They told me that there was a new medevac helicopter at the LifeFlight hanger, and I could see it out front.?? I saw one of the guys carrying half the engine cowl back to the aircraft, and watched him climb up and reinstall the cowl.? What I concluded is that "checking under the hood" on one of these machines is not a walk in the park. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20201103-DSCF7402.JPG.html This machine comes with a shrouded tail rotor, which is not only safer for the rotor and nearby personnel, but is also a work of art. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20201103-DSCF7405.JPG.html -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
