Images of helicopters inside the Anaheim Convention center at HELI-EXPO
A view of one corner of HELI-EXPO 2020 at Anaheim.
As the Helicopter Association International HELI-EXPO in Anaheim, California closes today, I have assembled a couple of dozen images from the event. There were over 60 helicopters inside the Anaheim Convention Center in Southern California and about 700 exhibitors. Needless to say, it was massive. On opening day Tuesday I logged almost 14,000 steps on my iWatch.
