Hi Scott

This picture was one of many used as a "Saftey Poster" to illustrate to the new air force how important their duties were. The helicopter was being flown by a Royal Air Force pilot who was obeying my hand signals to get him in the right position for the photograph, resonably easy for experienced flyers.

Kind Regards again, Gordon

Hi Jethro

Pleased to hear the tomatoes survived, whilst you and yours went into hiding.

Thought you would like some of the aircraft pictures, am sure you saw the details about a few of them including this one, and of course the honour I had to fly in Army One.

All the beat. Gordon

Excellent old picture Gordon. You seem to be an aviation fan or maybe a former pilot don't you?

Greetings. Bernard

Bonjour Bernard,

Thank-you for you kind comments, for visiting my gallery and finding some pictures to comment on. This one was done specifically for a safety poster, I was in the Royal Air Force and the Malaysian Air Force so hence the aviation pictures, but sadly not a pilot.

Salutations. Gordon

Thank-you, suprisingly enough this took quite a bit of skill as I had to signal to the pilot how much to come down or go up before, I could trip the shutter with the other hand, to get this "as your life is in their hands", certainly made a good aircraft safety poster.

Many thanks. Best wishes. Gordon.

Hi Michael,

That was the title of the Safety Poster that was distributed throughout the Royal Malaysian Air Force, making handlers aware of their responsibilities,

Gordon670, on February 12, said:

I sure had my hands full with camera and signalling to the pilot to up a bit down a bit to get the handlers hands in the position to show he had the aircraft in "His Hands"

Best wishes. Gordon
