I took the Harley out tonight and stopped by the Huey that's parked next to the Vietnam Veterans of America Post 331 building on Hwy 10 between Prescott and Ellsworth, WI. It seems to be in pretty good shape, almost like you could fly it away. I think the locator said it was in River Falls, but it's really out in the sticks.

My YAMAHA VENTURE HAS A) a hitch and B) the trailer to go with it-with its own plate holder the bikes is 'other toy' and the trailers is 'other toys toy'

adflyer,

I need some help with the location of this Huey. It is for the locator. Here is what I have, which isn't much...
ImageAerial Visuals - Location Dossier - Vietnam Veterans Association (VVA) Post 331

Could you provide a location? To do so use the map available via the link above. Zoom in on the location and right click on the location for the lat and lon.

I have started an airframe dossier for this one...
ImageAerial Visuals - Airframe Dossier - Bell UH-1H-BF Iroquois [205] Bell, s/n 74-22438 US Army, c/n 13761
If you don't mind, could you upload a picture of the Huey for the dossier? To do so go to...

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Mike

Do you want to find locations of displayed, stored or active aircraft? Then start with the The Locator.
Do you want to find or contribute to the documented history of an aircraft? If so then start with the Airframes Database.

The Huey is technically located in Ellsworth, WI, not River Falls. My parents only live a couple of miles away from this location, so I'm quite familiar with the location. I drove by it only a week ago.

The Huey is located near the Gaslight Bar, at the Intersection of County Road O and Highway 10, on the south side of Highway 10. Closest coordinates I can determine are:

44 degrees 43' 52.8" N
92 degrees 34' 57.8" W
