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.
