It is merciful for the next generation of Army helo pilots that the 210 will not be the LUH. The concept of the Huey was wonderful in the 1950's, practical in the 1960's and 70's and simply obsolete in the 21st century. The list of things that are wrong with the Huey (and the 210) is the history of what we have done to helicopters in the past 3 decades to make them safer, better and more capable.

Nostalgia is great, until your son has to fly it in combat!
