Billie-Jo's first trial at the controls, in our Bell 206 (BHV) on the Sunshine Coast with Ian Paull !! Wow! It took a few more years before Billie actually learned to fly. She did her flying training with Kestrel Aviation at Mangalore, VIC.

Those fresh rebuild and paint feels!! Funny story with this helicopter... we purchased the shell from (I think the Phillipines - I could be wrong) anyway it was being rebuilt in QLD with Tadgell Aviation Services, needed an engine, finding one in NZ... it was the engine the helicopter left the Bell Helicopter factory with brand new... #barossahelicopters #bell206 #freshpaint
