    Bad ass pilots yes but for every bad ass pilot in Vietnam there was an equally bad ass crew chief and door gunner that was on that helicopter

      And a badass maintenance crew who kept it flying.

      Thanks for your kind words. I’m just an amateur video editor using my I Phone. I can’t remember where I got the audio. I read Guts an Gunships a while back and I just researched the author.
      Thank you for all your work interviewing veterans. It does make a difference to some of us
      God Bless

    How the heck are they so calm in combat?

      We learned to stay calm. Not easy to learn but beat crashing or having a mad air with another huey. I was a Wo-1 with the 118AHC 68-69.

      That's mid air, not mad air
