The EH-101 Merlin is a medium lift, multi-role helicopter developed and produced by AgustaWestland International. AgustaWestland is a joint venture formed by Agusta of Italy, makers of the A-109, and Westland of Great Britain, makers of the Lynx. The EH-101 is a direct competitor to the Sikorsky S-92 and was developed for both military and civil roles.

The multi-mission capabilities of the helicopter required AgustaWestland to four variations, two civil and two military.

The first civil variant is the utility version. The utility version can be used for a combination of passengers and/or freight. It's able to fulfill a number or roles including law enforcement, offshore oil support, fire fighting, cargo, SAR (search and rescue), air ambulance, and corporate shuttle. Aircraft configuration is based on operator need. For example, an air ambulance configuration will have room in the cabin for flight paramedics/nurses, 16 stretchers, and the required medical equipment. The search and rescue variant is able to carry 20 survivors normally up to 55 in a disaster type situation.

The utility version of the EH 101 has a rear ramp for loading/unloading. The cabin is spacious and has flush tie down points on the floor. In addition it has a roller conveyer for loading freight on pallets and a winch for other freight that cannot be self loaded or loaded via the conveyor. It has an external cargo hook capable of lifting 12000 lbs. The EH-101 is capable of carrying and deploying a variety of gear to include searchlights and and hoists. In addition the side cargo door is equipped with a rescue hoist.

The second civil variant is the Heliliner. As the name implies, the Heliliner is configured to carry people in airline like fashion. The helicopter has a system that minimizes vibration and maintains low acoustic signatures in the cabin and the cockpit for increased passenger comfort. The Heliliner can carry up to 30 people in airline style seats a distance of 460 miles at a cruising speed of 180 mph. The Heliliner features a wide aisle, overhead baggage bins, a large baggage compartment and a capable and efficient air conditioning system to maintain passenger comfort no matter if the helicopter is operating in arctic or tropical climates.

The first military variant is a navalized version. As expected the navalized version is built to endure sustained maritime operations. It's used for anti-submarine warfare (ASW), amphibious heli-borne assault and search and rescue. The navalized version is able to carry torpedoes or depth charges.

The second military variant is the utility version. It's able to transport 24-seated fully equipped troops or 45 standing fully equipped troops. It can also transport various equipment, cargos and supplies around the battlefield. Both military versions can be equipped with chaff and flare dispensers, infrared jammers, missile warnings, infrared counter measures and other survivability features.

The helicopter is constructed mostly of an aluminum-lithium alloy. It has a five bladed rotor system and is capable of operating in temperatures ranging from -45C to +55C. The cockpit uses a Northrop Grumman glass cockpit instrument system, which includes 6 CRT displays and a Smiths Industries four-axis automatic flight control system. The civil version is powered by three General Electric CT7-6 turbo shaft engines rated at 2,000 SHP (shaft horsepower) each. Three Rolls Royce Turbomeca RTM322 engines rated at 2200 SHP each power the military versions.

A version of the EH-101 was selected by the United States Marine Corps to be the next helicopter transport for HMX-1. HMX-1 performs presidential, dignitary and VIP transport. They currently use H-3 Sea Kings and VH-60 White Hawk helicopters to fulfill transport missions. The US 101, as it's been designated, is the first non-Sikorsky helicopter to fly in this role since 1957. When all 23 helicopters come on line they'll be redesignated the VH-71A Kestrel.

Both Agusta and Westland have produced very capable helicopters. Their collaboration on the EH-101 has placed the combined company AgustaWestland on the forefront of helicopter design.

The African Grey Parrot

THE AFRICAN GREY PARROT (PSITTACUS ERITHACUS)
The African Grey Parrot is restricted to the equatorial forest belt from guinea-Bissau to Kakamega forest in western Kenya. In Uganda, It is found in appropriate habitat across the south of the country, north to Kaniyo Pabidi in Murchison falls protected areas, across the Mabira Forest and Ssese Islands. Different tour companies can organize have guides that can spot this bird like Abacus African Vacations did it for me.
This beautiful Parrot has two described races or forms which are physically different in appearance, the paler nominate, which is scientifically known as Psittacus erithacus in central east Africa and the darker P.E. timneh in the west with a cline of escalating size from West to East. The sexes are similar, the male becoming darker with age and the young bird is told from an adult by a grey, not yellow iris.
It is a big Parrot, slightly covered in size by the grey headed parrot piocephalus suahelicus (seen only in Uganda at Mgahinga and Bwindi, ruhiza national parks) and usually seen flying overhead in flocks of 2-20, uttering a series of screams, screeches, pops, whistles and croaks. Its demand as a very popular household pet is proving to be the cause of its increasing rarity in the wild, through illegal collecting as well as habitat destruction.
There are only 21 species of parrot in Africa compared to 52 in Australia and 70 in south America.
Traditionally, this species would have been far more wide spread within the forest biome, but the fragmentation of forest cover over its range has reduced it to isolated population in pockets of forest.
In Kampala, we see them usually in the morning and evening coming to and from perch. They are particularly fond of oil palm fruits, of which there are many mature trees in Kampala, planted years ago as ornamental specimens.
Birds flock together at night at traditional communal roost sites(in Gabon traditional roosts of 5-10,000 birds have been recorded!) and depart in the morning to fruiting trees sometimes flying great distances to feed.
Being confined to the equator, it does not have seasonal migration pattern but flies far and wide in response to fruiting trees in different seasons. During the rains it will capitalize on fruiting forest trees not traveling very far, but during the dry season it will often move away from the forest into agricultural areas to feed on maize, causing considerable damage to subsistence crops. It can be seen flying over Lake Victoria between the Sesse Islands and Forest patches in and around Masaka, distances of up to 50km.
African greys nest in large trees, in old growth forests that have plenty of dead wood to support naturally occurring cavities. They will use woodpecker holes and lay 2-4 white eggs.
Parrots are the only birds that have a movable maxilla, the upper bill attached hinge like to the skull. They can exert tremendous power with the bill, which is used to open the more stubborn of nuts and fruit. They have the most remarkable feet, using them not just as other birds do, but as hands to hold food items like a stick of sugar cane in the same way that we way that man would. Instead of normal bird feet, three forward one back, they have two toes pointing forward and two back (Zygodactyls). These feet combined with the bill, which it uses to hold onto branches, enable the bird to climb very well along flimsy branches to reach fruit at the tips, giving it an advantage over other birds its size, which are physically unable to climb in the same way.
Given their impressive natural vocabulary and range of calls, they are very well disposed to pick up new sounds in and around their environment. This is a particular attraction for the bird as a pet, which will imitate everything from cell phone to the toilet being flushed!!
Parrots generally live to a great age the famous sulfur-crested Cockatoo at London zoo lived to 126 years old!!
Without the pressures of survival in the wild, African Greys will live up to 60 years in captivity, and around 40-50 in the wild.
If their breeding habitat is removed, they will be seen mistakenly thriving for years, but not breeding. Eventually the population becomes too old to breed and suddenly over a short period of time dies off.
The main predator, other than man , to prey upon African Grey Parrot is the Black sparrow hawk, the largest of the Accipiter family, sometimes seen around Kampala and Entebbe.. The predator is by nature secretive , ambushing its prey from thick cover. Others include Ayres's Hawk Eagle and African Harrier Hawk ( or Gymnogene) the latter using its specialized long, double jointed legs to reach into the parrot's nest-hole to reach the chicks.
With old growth forest severely depleted outside of major reserves, breeding habitat can be simulated in suburban areas. Firewood collection has put great pressure on hole nesting species and those which feed on invertebrates, through the collection of dead wood, which in a forest is as important as live wood.
An exciting activity to experiment with is to install parrot nesting boxes. Anyone in Kampala with a garden having medium to large trees, that attract feeding greys, can try putting up different designs to see if they become occupied.
A basic box shape 250 by 250 cm wide by 600cm long with an entrance hole 12 cm diameter may attract parrots to it. It can also attract bees, so caution is advised as to where it is actually placed. I had a pair of brown parrots nest in a box in Muyenga a Kampala suburb as well as a pair of Burchell's starling at Kawempe. Black and white casqued Hornbills may also greatly appreciate a tea-chest or beer keg sized nest- box, which they readily take to.
There may be as many as 2000 pet African Greys in Kampala ', most having been caught in the wild. Bird breeders who rear African Greys are supposed to fit a closed ring to the leg of the Chick before it grows too big. Therefore an adult with closed ring will probably be a captive bred bird.

2002 Firehawk with L-88.?

I found a 2002 Fire hawk with L-88 of which there are 300. 425 Hp and 515 torque. Tranny was cooked as kid , for whatever reason did neutral drops. Was replaced and was also hit in rear. Fixed but was more then 3000.00 so shows on Carfax. Work was done by a mechanic who is also a friend . Wants only 3500.00 as it is on consignment . Balance of loan and insurance deductible. How much would this hurt resale as in in perfect condition gets 35,000.00. Fastest car (Stock on road). Been appraising cars for 15 years and cannot find a value for this with accident. tranny was original just new parts put back as T. converter was cracked in half. Runs like new now but still leary. This one was 3rd built and is signed ect as were hand built like Stang Cobra. Can't lose?

Well, obviously you wont get anywhere near $30K. But, if the body was redone well, showing no waves and the such, I could see you reselling this car and turning a profit. If this car drives fine and doesn't have a weird feel about it, I think you should take him up on this offer. These cars are in demand and always will be. I feel that if this car has no visual damage (ie. poor bodywork, poor paint matching) you might sell the car in the high teens. You could fish around and list the car for 20 something, hoping to attract a well-off pontiac gear head that doesn't care about the previous history. I am almost certain that this car will easily bring 14-20K. I would jump on this deal and try to sell it rather than keep it for a while. That is unless you have a few thousand dollars spare to spend on the car in case of future problems. Good luck and nice find.
