\nHere you can find Alouette III detail photographs from last summer. This French helicopter was still in Austrian military forces last summer. This type is quite an oldie nowadays so I was surprised to see it in flight too – and in great condition! So here is that lark (alouette stands for lark) in all its old-fashioned beauty:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n All the pictures published in this article have horizontal dimensions (width)\u00a0equal to 1500 pixels – so you will be able to see more details downloading them and then opening them on your computer.<\/p>\n The helicopter was photographed mainly from its left-hand (port) side. Why? It was very hot so the crew and a bunch of \u00a0visitors found their shelter in a helicopter’s shadow there.<\/em> Please do not miss the weathered and thus\u00a0multishade appearance of otherwise unicolor olive green camouflage.<\/em><\/p>\n Side-view shots with front door in both\u00a0closed and opened positions.<\/em><\/p>\n Please note the crowds in copter shadow again…<\/em><\/p>\n The engine, rotors and rotor hubs are visible here in closer detail – not close enough for modellers I know… therefore these areas are better documented in Engine & Rotor Hub section below.<\/em><\/p>\n Please note the left slide door and external rescue hoist structure above it\/on the roof of helicopter (upper picture).<\/em><\/p>\n The Left hand main undercarriage close up – camera is looking down and toward the tail of machine (lower picture).<\/em><\/p>\n a\/ Engine & Main Rotor Hub These two shots (upper and lower) show the engine from behind.<\/em><\/p>\n The engine and rotor hub right-hand (starboard) side:<\/em><\/p>\n More rotor hub details shot from different directions.<\/em><\/p>\n Please do not miss the shapes of two aerials and a light mounted on the helicopter roof.<\/em><\/p>\n External rescue hoist was incomplete on this machine. The lifting mechanism was not attached – it would be on the left end of the hoist base structure (upper picture).<\/em> <\/p>\n b\/ Tail Rotor & Tail\u00a0Rotor Hub<\/p>\n This is the cockpit interior photographed from left-hand side again.<\/p>\n Please note three different styles of <\/em>seat construction in the cockpit…<\/em><\/p>\n …and the harness is not the same either.<\/em><\/p>\n Here is the cockpit rear wall (upper image) and the ceiling details (lower image).<\/em><\/p>\n I hope these shots can help you with your Alouette III kit detailing.<\/p>\n If you would like to see this nice helicopter in flight, please look at\u00a0my short footage from the same photo event –\u00a0click\u00a0this link<\/a>. And finally the Alouette interior 360\u00b0 view<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you enjoyed this post, I\u2019d be very grateful if you\u2019d help it spread by\u00a0sharing it on Facebook<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Text & Images <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>Copyright \u00a9 2013 by Marcel Meres<\/strong><\/p>\n Here you can find Alouette III detail photographs from last summer.
