They only built 27 HH-1K's

Found another one. 157818 (I think). Sure of all the numbers except the last "8". The Side Number of 86 shoots holes in my Side Number theroy. Anyway, shot in Aug 1970 when she was only a few months old. HT-8 at NAS Ellyson Field.

The Co-pilots panel of 157848. Located at the VVA in Tallahasse Fl on static display. Was with the SC Forestry Service. Looks like they just did minimum mods on it like a HUGE hole were the attitude gyro goes, places a second Dual Tach on the CP side and slapped on some paint, now peeling.

AMARC Photos TH-1L

Wed Dec 12, 2007 4:01 pm

Does anyone out there have any photos from AMARC showing the TH-1L or any of the Red and White Navy Hueys? Most of them are probably UH-1Es disguised as TH-1Ls, but it's a start.

They would have been there from approx 1983 to 1994.
