This 1978 Puma is used by Erickson Evergreen Helicopters but leased to the US Navy Military Sealift Command under a three plus two year contract of Geo-Seis Helicopters. Geo-Seis operated 2 SA330Js (see my other picture of N405R), aboard three MSC combat stores ships on a rotating basis beginning in Jan'05. The commercial helos deployed aboard the ships all over the world and operate often from shore bases for vertical replenishment missions. Strikingly, this N330JF is only painted as N330J. Check all the US Navy squadron (sticker)zaps on the wheel bay. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
