Every now and then One gets the opportunity to fly an unforgettable Helicopter....some are those you wish never to climb into ever again and those that are just sweet ol' Darlings and wind up being one you really enjoyed being around.
Among those I feel that way about is the Sikorsky S-58 and S-58T.
The rumble and snorting of the old Piston Radial coming to life is one of life's wonderful sounds.....and slinging your flight gear up into the Cockpit Window and climbing up the side of the Old Girl is a ritual that One must experience to appreciate.
A good article on some folks that are keeping the T-Birds going!
