Gordy, does that machine have the tail rotor on the left, rotating down at the front? I thought the flip-flop tail rotor was part of the fast fin/strake modification, so the blade is on the right side, rotating up at the front?

The D’s pitot tube was atop the cockpit, not on the nose https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....8930c6dd6f.jpg |

Excellent pictures! Great up-close image of the hoist, cabin, and rescue gear.

One type of Huey maybe...But the twin Huey lives on.
Three XH-40 prototypes were built, followed by six YH-40 service test aircraft. The designation of the XH-40 was soon changed to XHU-1.
This helicopter was the prototype of what would be known worldwide as the “Huey.” The helicopter was designated by the U.S. Army as HU-1, but a service-wide reorganization of aircraft designations resulted in that being changed to UH-1. Produced for both civil and military customers, it evolved to the Model 205 (UH-1D—UH-1H), the twin-engine Model 212 (UH-1N), the heavy-lift Model 214, and is still in production 62 years later as the twin-engine, four-bladed, glass-cockpit Model 412EPI and the UH-1Y. Otter :rolleyes: |
