Thanks. Supposed to be a stormy day with a cold front moving through.
So I'm going through pictures I took last week at FRG and one was of the nice looking R-44 Clipper that
hangars over by Atlantic, N272DW. This copter has been here for years and was also used during the air shows to ferry people back and forth from Jones Beach. On a number of occasions I heard them on FRG Tower advise they would be landing at an off site pad to the north. I figured must be some rich guy landing
on his property somewhere. So this morning I finally decided to check out who this might be since his website is on the side of the copter.

Well DUH ME!! :oops: when I see who operates this copter. (Getting old and slow :) )
Very nice indeed. And interesting reading.
BTW is this the same R-44 that used to sit in the Talon hangar?
