Museum

  

This is a sister ship of my Huey that's on display in the Ft. Rucker air museum. It's S/N is six numbers away from mine, both built in 1960. So, this is how mine looked when it was new.
 They were part of the first shipment of 25 that arrived to begin training pilots for Vietnam.
It's too clean to look real, too clean to fly, lacks the "character" that mine shows.







Flex guns (twin M-60's) fired by the copilot, 7 shot rocket pods, all still in use at the time we left Vietnam .


   

A gunship crew's nightmare!
This is part of the display at Ft. Rucker air museum.


  

A little too late for a rescue!
