Darkhorse30 - sounds like a zone D callsign.

Right, the UH1M INFANT had the 540, as well as a forward CofG problem. The preproduction AH1 had a Vne of 220 and sans pods, armament, ammo, etc. that and the production AH1G could outrun the Chinook with ease, providing the skid cross tube farings were installed (Vne restricted without all four - I seem to remember).
