Finally a tour where you guys are going slow enough that I can keep up in a 50’s heli!
Had a blast taking this out for the trip.

Started a bit late so I was alone for the first half.



But no complaints with a view like that!

Crew Chief had to get a look for himself.





Finally catching up to some people.



Wasn’t that hard to land here, not sure what you guys are on about… :stuck_out_tongue:

Seedy crashing into the only obstacle.




In formation on approach


Everyone lined up to watch the spectacle.

I live in northern Italy and you could not have organized a better itinerary than the Amalfi Coast … well done.
