| Yep, you've pretty much nailed it, but it's still a different aircraft. Not like the RAF Chinooks which are just basically stretched....
I'm not trying to be funny, or nasty it's just that I wanted to point out the facts, I don't want to fall out with anyone over this.
I'll shut up now.

They may have come from the same prototype but look nothing like each other really.
Sigh....nevermind! we all make mistakes! | Hey bright eyes the S-61 is the civilian name for it and no a S-61 is not a Jolly Green Giant. The Jolly Green Giant is a HH-3. The Sea King is just what the Military calls the S-61. The Jolly Green Giant is different form the S-61 and the Sea King.
The Sea King is more closely related to the S-61 than a Jolly Green Giant. The picture up there is not of a Jolly Green Giant.
Trust me I know my helicopters quite well.
Sigh....nevermind we all make mistakes!
