Thread: Old huts

More photos for helicopter enthusiasts out there....

A helicopter taking off from the Pohangina base in the Southern Ruahines.



I obviously have other associated photos to this area and will put up in due course and other links to other threads / posts etc.


A helicopter in the Hunter Valley Otago region



I used to work for the NZFS as a carpenter in the Southern Lakes / Otago area.
Most probably put up some more photos for viewers enjoyment etc.
