RDAF Merlin getting up close and personal with a fast ferry
Frank N. O.:
Hi again, after some depressing months I've tried finding something nice (not an easy thing these days), but found this video which just made me go ::unbelieveable:: ::bow:: ::wave::

If I'm not mistaking then that's a catamaran fast ferry sailing between Zealand and middle Juttland (thus bypassing a boring drive over Funen according to their silly tv-ads) so the thing is moving at a fair pace. I wish I'd been aboard that ferry, I haven't been within a km of a Merlin and didn't even manage to get a good picture of one when I saw one last. The comments say that they've been this close to other ferries too.
I must say it looks fantastically stable but then again it is a pretty modern machine as far as I know.
I haven't really read the forum a while, I'll go do that the next few days, I hope I'll read some good news, or at least that things haven't gotten worse ::wave::

P.S. My avatar is gone since it was hosted on my old friend Chey's picture-album and that went 404 earlier this year, probably confirming she's no longer with us (she had health-issue and I haven't heard from her in 2 years). I don't really have another site to upload it to again so I'll have to do without it.
G-man:
Yo Frankie,
Life is good.....go watch the movie "The big Lebowski".... and then just "abide dude"
Someone should really "moon" than Merlin.... be rude not to....
P.S. RIP Frank N.O.'s avatar.... shots facing west.....
Mike:
That EH101 is pretty amazing! I'm intrigued by those mainrotor blades. Interesting shape....
You can tell this wasn't a British crew, otherwise mooning would have commenced.
Good to have you back, Franky. RIP Frankie's avatar.
There has been a lot more action on FB than on the forum, so make sure you check that out as well...
And yes, watch "The Big Lebowski" DUDE!
G-man:
Frank...
Send me your avatar.... I can get it hosted for you....
Mike:
