Brian,
My alcohol ravaged brain must be getting really bad....flew the civvie 205A-1 a bit but don't recall that bit of kit....but then I have trouble remembering my address after dark too.
I know the UH-1 series did not have it.
Of course....most of the places I flew the civvie 205 would not have had it working after the first time it got snagged either.
But as they say....we live and learn....and forget.
