Given that the answer to your query on the first one is to be found on the picture itself - hint, hint - maybe you would benefit from some research and picture matching ....

That link is helpful, but I can't quite read the description on that plate in the first picture.Originally Posted by bersaglieri

The EH-101 was one of the development aircraft (PP5 I think), and as it says on the side, was used in C-17 compatability trials - its last job before going on display.
Its was really the EHI 01 (European Helicopter Industries 01) but some typo in the office turned it into EH 101
