Very nice, Tony.
Nice to see shots from Birmingham - my 'spiritual home'.
Interesting reg for the EC135P2 (G-POLA) - would that be 'a Bear in the Air'?

G-POLA, no nothing as exciting... we had a think fest between us all and we came up with various thoughts some were er not suitable
but others were
G-OTCHA etc
but G-POLA was selected by the bosses as it was thought eventually when everything went national the number would not be tied to one region as identity... I prefered G-OTCHA

Heh, nice looking whirlybird there. You haven't been anywhere near me have you? There has been a police chopper that has seemingly taken to practising hovering over my house for the last few weeks
Wasn't G-FUZZ considered?

No not over Liverpool but you have about 4 air units all close to you there so could be any of them I guess

Well you're alright, you could have G-ARRY... I only use the one R so no good to me.
