- In this helicopter encounter, we are taking a close up look at the Bell UH-1 Iroquois Huey helicopter, as seen in Hervey Bay recently.
This one is registered in Australia as VH-UVC 65-10100. It was built in 1966 with serial number 5144. It was re-registered and returned to service in October 2018.
The owner said that it has served in active service in 'Desert Storm' operations during 1990-1991. It may also have been involved in the 1955-1975 Vietnam War also, as that is what they were built for.

Yes such a tragedy this crash RIP everyone on board the flight
Iconic sounds of a Huey
Ahhhhh...the video certainly bought back some memories from the past! I became a 'frequent flyer' (army and Westpac Rescue) in this type of helicopter, strong and reliable, a true workhorse. Nice to see one in such good condition.
I look forward to your upcoming production of the planning and landing...should be good! Thanks for sharing CB!
RIP to the pilot and passangers of UVC no good to go out at night on VFR
HI CB are you using any type of protective case or lens protection for your insta360 one x?
This aircraft disappeared off radar near Port Stevens yesterday 6th September ☹️
Anthony Hayden Oh thats not sounding good. Is it officially missing?
CRAYONBOX FLYING ADVENTURES unfortunately yes, they are searching an area off Anna Bay but no luck so far, there are reports of decree spotted
@@CrayonboxAviationAdventures was travelling at 70 knots at 3500ft and then fell at 154 knots according to the tracking data. Very sad for all their families.
