Copper chopper activity over Campbell Barracks today due to an exercise. As usual, my photo skills were at their worst. Only one worth looking at from about 500m away. Is this the new beast?

Cool. They did heaps of low passes over our depot while I didn't have the camera handy. There was some sort of do-hicky sticking out one side towards the front. Dunno if it was camera or a winch.
