As for rotaty-wings, my vote goes to the UH-1 Huey, for defining the the role of the helicopter in modern combat and rescue, and for beeing perhaps the most famous helicopter of all times. Yes, definitely the Huey. I spent as many Huey hours helicopter skiing in Canada as I did hitchhiking around Vietnam, but it is the heat and the rain forest that give me a flash when I hear the whump-whump of those Huey rotors overhead. Speaking of longevity -- surely an important factor in living in history -- the army has just ordered a new iteration of the Huey. Or so I recall from a recent Aero-News email. all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put CUB in subject line) see the Warbird's Forum at www.warbirdforum.com and the Piper Cub Forum at www.pipercubforum.com |
