Great photos Jas , that R44 is giving you some great entertainment :) One thing I did notice was spray from one boom only while he whiz's along the gause hedge line.

Hi Ian the pilot flying was awesome to watch and once he seen me taking pics of the chopper he started showing off his skills with a series of mid air turns and banks it from time to time we also have as350 and a bell jetranger that also join in
