Just fantastic! Thanks to Didier Delsalle for his respect to the great man who was Jean Boulet. By pure humility and dignity, he apparently refused to bring his B3 higher than the Lama of Jean. His impressive demonstration of "survival" on the Everest already convinced all the pros, I guess. We will therefore avoid believing in an obscure other "record" in B2 ..😎

Lama SA315 was very successful in India. Indian Air Force extensively made use of Lama to supply military installations in Himalayas. Lama and Alouette III were license built in India as well.

Ce devait être impressionnant de voir le monde et l'horizon à cette altitude. Bravo à monsieur Jean Boulet. Vive l'hélicoptère 🚁 et vive Airbus.

The Swiss Sue helicopter I'll call it the problem with that is high altitude when you go high altitude with the helicopter you have to wear oxygen mask because it goes so high up and so fast you got to be have to fast learning a fast quick to responder it's a good bed of back helicopters but there's limitations to it faster you go the faster you have to turn so limitation is how fast you want to go too fast you might make a mistake and hit the building but you got to know how to operate it high altitude helicopter limitations on a cargo

Are you so stupîd to think that they flew without any flight plan ?? With a French made and registered aircraft in foreign country ?? Of course the flight was approved by the Nepalese traffic control !! You such an idiot !! It shows literaly your ignorance about aviation topics. Better to shut up !!
