| Administrative History | These were taken between 1979 and 1981 and were used, along with more technical photos, to train Helicopter Landing Officers to identify different makes and models of helicopter. Some are copies of press photos. In those cases, the copyright remains with the newspaper and copies cannot be made. |
| Description | Most appear to have been taken on the ground at an airport, probably Dyce airport in Aberdeen. All photos taken in daylight unless otherwise stated.
