RAAF Helicopter ops in Vietnam 1966-72

This first class presentation by former RAAF pilot (and later airline pilot) Wayne Parsons on RAAF helicopter operations 1966 to 1972 in Vietnam is a must see for all pilots both in the airline industry and general aviation. It shows pure flying skill at its best.
No GPS or glass cockpits in those days. Just map reading and raw courage.
Both presentations go for approximately 40 minutes each and I guarantee viewers will not want to leave their screen until each presentation is concluded.
