Thanks wrench, learnt something new, and I see the 58 does have a civil equivalent.

There must means around the TCDS. It states,

Quote:

NOTE 15.Canadian Military Model COH-58A serial numbers 44001 and up are not eligible for Federal Aviation Administration type certification in any category.

NOTE 16.Military Model OH-58A surplused from other than an Armed Force of the United States is not eligible for Federal Aviation Administration type certification in any category.

The aircraft in the photo above is serial number 44023, which in my mind, sort of puts in the same category as the B-1. How did they manage then to get 44023 on the register? The operator (commercial) is listed as the manufacturer?????
