Offshore Flying in the 80's

In December 1979 I started flying offshore in the Gulf of Mexico for Petroleum Helicopters Inc. I worked there until April 1984. These are a few of the photos that I took as slides. I converted these slides using my Fuji S602Z and my Canon slide adapter. The slides were in rough condition, thus the low quality of the photos.
