I'm thinking the crewman's seat (left side of pics) must rotate, 'coz it'd be tricky getting into the back otherwise..

Nice pics, my youngest daughter was looking at the pic with me and asked "Where's the CD player dad".

That's what sets helicopters apart from fixed-wingers: alongside the maps is a street directory!

That's good though - Good for visual road references.

I visited Rescue 65's new hanger recently, must be great for the crew to have everything under the one roof now. Unfortunately I forgot my camera!

Not sure but there is a button which basically cuts the line off the winch (and in the process, dumps whomever was hanging off the end of it). Could be that one..

Not a TAIT radio. The non-aviation radios are next to the portable in the shot (and also at the bottom out of picture).

Surely in this day and age they have a PC in there somewhere with google earth for navigation.
