Spotted this Dyncorp UH-1H at Meacham Field today.
She's a Warbird
Found interesting history here...http://www.gate.net/~johnston/176AC_DB/65-09577.html

Never know what you will see.

So Zane... what were you doin' knockin' around Meacham on a work day? :lol:

If you'd been there on Sunday, you could have stopped by the VFM hangar and met me!

Cheers!

Dean,

Well...today I was just up the road in Saginaw seeing a customer...so Meacham is..ah..on the way...yeah that's the ticket...

Dang, that Slick is old!

I quote, from the history report:

"This helicopter was purchased by the US Army in 1265."

Heck, that means it was old when Gen. George Warshington himself was ridin' around in 'em Hooeys!

:lol:
