Day three
Yawn... tired today... Got up at 0545 as yesterday, but what sleep I didn't need yesterday I needed today, and I almost went back to sleep unvoulantarily.
The weather suddenly changed yesterday from partly sunny to rain and wind at 50 knots. Luckily I was working mostly under "roof".
When I came here two days ago I flew for the first time a Super Puma:

Normally we fly a Sikorsky S-92 like this, but.. there had been some problems.

Stationed out on the platform they have a Sikorsky S-76C+:

This a SAR helicopter(search and rescue), which they also use for personel shutteling between the platforms. I took this from SFB to SFA last time cause they had overbooked the platform for the night. Much fun to fly! (Like airwolf :-P)
Wish you a nice day!
