These guys were moving some airconditioning condensors to my
neighbors roof Sunday AM. After almost blowing my shingles off, I got
out the camera and went next door to make some photos...

Whatzit, H34?

Looks a lot like the Sikorsky S-58's
Sabena used to fly in my boyhood days nigh on 40 years ago now Quite
surprising to find one still active!

Didn't those have a R-985 radial in them. I remember they wee NOISY and
didn't quite sound like a R-985 in a plane. ALL airplanes should have
radial engines !!

Apparently the H-34 was the military designation of the S-58. It's got an
R-1820.
