Mr Sousa, thanks, the tail rotor on this beast is on the left.
Apparently this machine arrived in SA from Marutania and was originally from guess where? "Vietnam!."
The registration is a very inconspicuos ZU- C something. ZU in South Africa means experimental/Kit/ex mil.
In other words it`s pretty much a UH1 straight from where they became famous. Great aeroplane to watch, load em up and go!
The rumour has it that the records are shaky as in no airframe/engine/component log cards but then if the a/c is ZU registered they are not required!
