Warbird Information Exchange

I'm currently working on the Registry and WRG entries for the PV-2 Harpoon and the H-43 Huskie, If you have any pictures, or either warbirds or in-service pictures I would appreciate them. Either post them here or you can send them to

In fact I am looking for in-service pictures of any aircraft in service up to 1975. (I know, yet one more project)

Any Huskies still flying? I remember as a kid reading about how the AF used them as rescue helos at crashes.

Kaman Aircraft in Bloomfield, CT had two flying when they were developing the K-Max helicopter about 1-12 years ago. One was the airframe at the New England Air Museum. They bought it from the museum for feasibility testing and then when they were done, they donated it back and returned it to it's original colors when based at Andrews AFB.

Great stuff guys, thanks!

I'm slowly developing the Huskie section,
what I have so far is here ---> http://www.warbirdregistry.org/heloregi ... html#HH-43

I'm finding these weird little choppers to be really interesting, didn't know the first ones were radial powered.
