At 11.30 the test of balancing out began. At
13.55 straps for the docking to the helicopter were prepared.
The adventure of the flight started! Strong winds over the Black Forest made the trimaran
swinging around a few times. At 14.55
the CH-53 with the RelationShip reached the Marina in
Breisach. Television- and radio- reporters and the crew were already waiting.
Then the majestic hovering
of the helicopter with the RelationShip. Everybody was in position for the right picture.
Slowly the RelationShip came closer to the water...
|
|
|
... only a few centimetres ... |
... the first contact with the water ...
|
|
|
The Hubschrauber uncouples. The RelationShip is in its element.
|
But now, many interviews ... |
