Medevac Mastery

Was interesting to see all the options for a medevac helicopter at the HeliExpo this week.

Not only was the equipment impressive, but the pilots, flight nurses, and medics all demonstrated an exceptional level of knowledge and capability. It’s good to know there are people and equipment at the ready in case of the worst. And it’s only getting better. It’s amazing what they can pack into a flying machine. Hopefully, I never need one.

Rokon

Check out this vintage Rokon from 1971, lovingly restored by a friend of mine.

Before there were all many of all terrain vehicles, there was the Rokon, which features an amazing design. Both the front and rear wheel are drive wheels thanks to a gear box located under the seat and a driveshaft that runs forward.

The Rokon is a rugged machine designed for rough use. The wheels are hollow and you can use them to store fuel.

While innovative, the design is fairly simple as you can see in the close-ups above and below.

It’s an impressive unit given when it was first available. Some stunning examples still in use.

Indie Photo Lab, Philadelphia

Here’s a “thank you” and “job well done” to Indie Photo Lab in Philadelphia. As viewers of this blog will know, I’ve been meddling in film photography again. Of course, I need a professional lab to develop and scan my results. The crew at Indie Photo Lab did a great job, especially on some scans of 4X5 film I shot more than 15 years ago. Here’s a digital look at their storefront.
