Speaking of Seasprites...I've had a question for a long time.
Does anyone know if an original UH-2A (single-engine) example remains....or were they all converted?

Any idea of when this one was built? I worked airframe assembly in Moosup from 1983-85.

If it's an "F", the 1905 visible in the photo would make it 161905...the 26th "F" model built. Deliveries of "F"s began in 1973. Deliveries were completed by 1982.
