Always RX... Did you have anything to do with the TV crews working on the story being done at Jandakot when you took those pics :?: I was the ABC cammo working that job. Did you see us there?

BTW, great pics :)

I wonder if they had a party for VH-TVG's 21st birthday this year? I flew in it on its first day in service at TVW.

Wow Steve, i didn't think either of you were that old :lol:

Given the way 7 is in decline i can't imagine they would be celebrating anything :( . Who out there now would remember back that far?

What do you mean 7 is in decline? In WA they have been blitzing the ratings forever, and nationally they are ever increasing...

TVW 7 Perth, has for the last few years been shutting down facilities, stripping out equipment, shedding staff and selling off assets. All 3 of the Commercial channels' (7,9,10) Perth operations are but shadows of their former selves :cry:

Cost cutting through centralisation and the now total lack of independent broadcasters :-(

Seven is enjoying its best rating ever nationally (due in good part to some good purchases by its network programming boss) but as a place to work, well that's a different matter.

I must say VH-TVG is still looking pretty good. It's aged much better than I have in the past 21 years!

TVG is a very nice helicopter... I have had the pleasure of 3 or 4 rides in it over the last few years.
