Bell 205

An ASTREA Bell 205A1++ operating at the San Diego Sheriff's pad during the 2012 Gillespie Airshow. The first landing, the helicopter was returning from a call; just in time for their demo. Unfortunately, just after takeoff, the hoist demo was cancelled due to a gear collapse of a Fairey Firefly on landing.

Beautiful. Love the landing, ground idle and shutdown. Start up of the Huey is one of the best sounds on earth.

205 or uh1 is one of the best and safe aircraft for civil and military porpoises i have had nice experience of flying many hours

[@bamaslamma1003]

Huey for the win! The landing, throttle down to ground idle, and shutdown are a nice bonus too.

Thanks for letting us out there! I was the other guy, with the camera. I got some pretty good shots of the 205...some directly overhead and stuff. If you're interested at all, I can email them to you. Thanks again!
