All great pictures! Isn't that fifth picture of a UH-1N as opposed to a UH-60?

Great shots, Jay. I don't care what anyone says, the UH-1 is still a beautiful bird.

Thanks Kevin...

My "reportage" skills need work, that's pretty obvious! :oops:

Agreed. Why get rid of what works so well? Especially the twin engine variants!

It was very interesting to compare how the -1N and -1Y sounded.

The UH-1Y was, for all intents and purposes, nearly silent by comparison. Just a low rumble (almost like a loud cat purr) instead of the traditional wop, wop, wop, wop...

The four-bladed rotor (and whatever voodoo they did to the blades) makes a big difference.

That "woop, woop, woop," is unmistakable and is one helluva sound.
