Photographed during Helifest 91 at Duxford, this Bolkow 105 is shown slinging a piece of equipment known as a 'Bambi Bucket'. These collasible buckets come in various sizes and are used for aerial firefighting. G-PASD was built in 1984 and was originally registered in the UK as G-BNRS. Police Aviation Services acquired her in 1989 and operated her until 2001 when she was bought by Redwood Aviation and registered G-WOSY. She was exported to New Zealand in 2003 becoming ZK-HSJ.
