That is certainly a pretty B Model Huey....Bert...you confused me....did not the Charlie model have a 540 rotor system and the M model was nothing more than a Charlie model which had the -13 engine....which made the Mike Model a real horse. The Charlie model which is very similar to the Kilo model except for the engine, had the accumulator system and not a second independent hydraulic system. The Bell 205 had a single hydraulic system (same as the UH-1B/D/H....and the 205A-1 had dual hydraulics like the later derivative of the 205A-1 now known as the 212 and the deriviative of it called the 412. Also...the Bell 211 model which was basically a UH-1B airframe with a 2000 shp engine, a 48 foot wide chord blade with swept tips....I would assume an H model tailboom....that would lift 6000 pounds all day on the hook.

Trivia question for you Bert....on a Bell 412 where are the Bell 47 parts?
