I somehow had never seen an
ecdysiast
S55 before now.

I had to google that word, but I think I see what you did there

I keep forgetting how much of a beast that Sea Dragon is

It’s funny because ecdysiast sounds like a specialist role but it’s really just a complicated word for stripper and the S55 with the cowls open looks like it’s flashing us or taking off garments. Or something.

I had to google that word... then bing...
I actually think it’s a S-58/H-34. I can’t tell but I think that’s a four bladed rotor not three.

Never seen the Bell HSL before. I love the weirdness of tandem rotor stuff like Piaseckis. These photos are great in showing how they put radial engines in helicopters.

Oh I thought it was because of the one in the snow that may have been in the Arctic/on or around one of the poles
