1958 Former French Navy Sud Aviation SE-313B Alouette II F-AZYB / Landing, Start Up and Take Off

[@travellerrana9978]

This beautiful bird was produced under licence in my country for high altitude purposes.
For 40 yrs it served as the military backbone for medical and transport at 17,000 ft Siachen battlefield.
For veterans who served at Siachen, this helicopter is a emotion ❤️❤️

Great Catch of this historic French turboshaft pioneer. Proudly powered by TURBOMÉCA, the turbine people from the Pyrénées! 3-blade rotor is MUSIC, as on its Eurocopter descendants!
Thanks a Lot! Merci Beaucoup!

[@foxxray54]

Thanks a lot Javier 👍 Yes, this helicopter is a pioneer. Its descendant (AS350) benefited from all these technological advances 😎

Bonjour,
Très belle machine classée collection. Bonne tenue au pied du pilote, tout est magique à contempler. Elle serait encore plus fun avec une tuyère brillante si déjà le chauffage est absent...
Compliments à son heureux propriétaire !

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

That helicopter looks identical to the bell 47 possibly because of the same back end

[@foxxray54]

It is larger and was the first turbine helicopter produced 😉

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Foxxray produced in 1950s

[@foxxray54]

Yes. This one was produced in 1958 👍

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Foxxray oh right okay

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

I suspect the bell 47 appeared in 1959

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

The sound is different between this helicopter and the bell 47

[@foxxray54]

Yes. This one has a three blades main rotor and a turbine engine. While the Bell 47 has a 2 blades main rotor and a piston engine.

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

Foxxray yeah that’s why they both sound different
