CF-KGT Bell
47G2 (c/n 2182)
Another of Okanagan's helicopters. I would never go
out of my way to take shots of helicopters.
I think they are aesthetically
ugly. They didn't need to be. As evidence of this I submit,
below, a
photograph of Bell's earlier Model 42. This model had
serious teething problems, but at least it was
a
handsome looking "limousine of the air". As the craft became more
utilitarian, then then aesthetics
went out the
window and we wound up with the ugly looking, although practical,
creature above.
