Those pics by daveyuk reminded me of the following.
Was at Cadair Idris a few weeks ago - a reunion of our Everest Basecamp trekkees from 2 years ago.
Rescue helicopter had to pull someone off the mountain and landed by the lake. Although in the lee of the blustery wind, can recall how much of a flukey downdraught there was down there (as we'd walked up that way).
Usual no messing as you'd expect: in, circle once to get a measure of the winds, land, load and then away
Pic shows Tony - typical Canon user, not a clue! LOL!
And no, not great quality - conditions were against us!
Anyone know how I can display these instead of link them?
