These are some photos of a 1966 Bell UH-1H Huey, delta 6. According to the folk at Aeroflex-Andover, she spent six years in Vietnam. She has a new paint job, isn't she purty? She carries crew to fire, has a long line and a cargo net for supplies. She carries a 325 gallon bucket, the bucket is cinched to about 80 percent of capacity and she carries partial fuel (206 gallon capacity, carries about 180 gallons) to save weight. On average, she can make 20 drops on a single tank of gas. It does not show in one picture, but her tug is a De lorean Tug. I got to sit in her left seat to get the cockpit photos for you.
