Fort Rucker reached an Army Aviation milestone last month — the one millionth flight hour in the TH-67.
The TH-67 Creek (Bell 206B) replaced the Huey in 1993 to train initial entry rotary wing students in primary, instrument and basic warfighting skills.
At a ceremony to mark the occasion, Fort Rucker commanding general
Maj. Gen. Virgil L. Packett II, said the one millionth hour is a remarkable example of combining bureaucracy, leadership and industry to train more than 15,000 aviators, and the TH-67 Creek has allowed and enabled Soldiers to become Army Aviators in safe and reliable ways.
Nothing remarkable about the quote - I just wanted to use the name.
Is the Bell 206 the most successful helicopter in the history of rotary aviation?
If not, what is?
