| Ray Romero raymero@yahoo.com Mahaboula, Kuwait, YT | There is UH-16 at Carson City, NV that has been restored and
makes the airshows in the area. this airplane was the station hack at NAS Guantanmo Bay, Cuba. I flew in this aircraft on the way to Rosy Roads in Puerto Rico to Swing compasses on our F-8's because we didn't have a rose at Gitmo. thois was in 1964. the restorer was a crewman who bought the bird when he got out of the Navy and it was Surplused. I was in VU10. Ray Romero Mahaboula, Kuwait 06/01/2000 @ 15:56 |
