In this episode we hear from Andrew Brian of the Helicopter Heritage Museum. This is a talk given by Andrew during the Wings Over New Zealand 20th Anniversary Forum Meet held at the Air Force Museum of New Zealand in Christchurch.

Andrew talks about how he literally stumbled into the saving, restoration and preservation of helicopters that have flown in New Zealand, and the various types he has rescued. His hobby has developed into a proper scale collection with the backing of businessman Daniel Smith.

As the talk had a very visual component, the photos shown on Andrew’s PowerPoint have been added to a YouTube version of the talk, and also are displayed below.
