Chateau d If:
To add to the pinning of the helicopter in Brazil, there is an advertisement painted on the side of a building that the helicopter flies over.  In the ad there is a telephone number expressed as nnnn-nnnn.  This is the standard structure for numbers in Brazil (maybe other places too but at least it is consistent.

You should take into consideration another country in South America.  I cannot imagine them going to Brazil and just going to Sao Pablo.  Usually they have visited 2 countries in every continent visited.  Maybe in South America they went to Peru. Or other cities in Brazil.  They have a really beutiful country, and could have spend 2 legs there. =]/

Slowhatch:
I think I've made some progress on the dancers, but I'm not ready to call it a match yet. Compare Puddin's cap to a cap I made from video at the Gzhel website. There are so many changes of costume; it looks more like a Vegas act than folk-dancing! I'm going to check out some other troupes and cities before calling it, though.

Yes, go here and enter the tail number (I can't link to it directly). Not much useful information, and nothing about the owner--just "private air services" (I'm surprised I got that much). As far as the nerd team photo, it looks like they're walking away from another Robinson 44.

--- Quote ---Sao Paulo City is ranked as one of the world's three busiest helicopter zones, following New York and Tokyo, and as number one in heliports concentrated in a single area.
