SAPS Air Wing, Cape Town, Airbus H125 ZT-RFT popping in this morning. As far as I know this is one of their newest helicopters, I think they got it last year in September. Probably still has that new leather smell inside. :D Nice. :smt023

Blast from the past - Sikorsky S-61N Mk.II ZS-RLL Sn 61778 passing by in Titan Helicopter Group livery, operating for PetroSA back then.

I stand to be corrected, but this is probably the largest helicopter to ever have flown under ZS registration and operated in SA to date.
