Huey 509 flying sequence

Due to popular demand here is Huey 509 doing what she does best, making lots of noise with her enormous rotoblades. Nothing added and nothing taken away just the natural sound of this iconic machine.

[@srtbravo6590]

For those of us that grew up in that time the sound of a Huey passing over low and fast sounds like Freedom!

[@coco3244]

the sound of this machine is the best for me... just epic

[@RansakedBassist]

Man I remember when I was like 12 13 years old I was soo obessed with the Huey. Its still my favorite helicopter. Its just so beautiful and the sound is music to my ears

[@johnboy557]

just beautifull,close your eyes and your back there..40 years on..

[@picksnriffs]

Definitely one of the top Huey videos on youtube.

[@bionictrucker1]

What an awesome classic bird as well as the awesome classic deep, roaring, whup, whup, sound! I love the ole Huey!

[@Probowler37]

Don't know what it is about these, you can hear them coming from miles away unlike most other helicopters. Love the sound!

[@vernitagreen1]

one of the most beautiful sounds i have ever heard :)

[@jimrollins4857]

Loved hearing them when they came and picked us up out of the field 70/71 in I Corp.

[@Midnight24435]

yea, same here. Love the thunderous sound of the rotors.

[@realairforce]

What a sound !!!!!

[@iksnadrac]

This movie is great for 3 reasons: 1) This is about THE helicopter ever made 2) The cameraman knew how to handle a camera 3) No stupid music was added afterwards, like in a lot of other youtube movies, ruining the whole idea Nice Job man ! Lt.Col.C.

[@jacobsmith5510]

Steve Cardanski only music even remotely acceptable would be Fortunate Son.

[@travelsphere7402]

Steve Cardanski u r a waste

[@Antagraber]

The best music is the unique sound of this helicopter and its turbine starting. I am a fan of this helicopter and I wish to have the chance to fly with some day.

[@koogmoo]

Now that is a sound of a real helicopter, just imagine 30 of those hueys flying by at low level...total goose bumps....

[@hrbeta]

The distinctive sound is called flapping and best appreciated on helicopters with two heavy rotor blades. I love Hueys...

[@skywarp1]

No matter the model, it's the sound that makes this masterpiece feel so good inside. I salute you Huey! Thank you for all the lives you saved and sacrificed.

[@scd96]

I would just like to say that the huey is what got me in to flying, and what is helping inspire me to become a helicopter pilot in the military. Still debating on air force or army yet...

[@luftwicker07]

Gotta love that sound

[@Chrger66]

I never thought that in my life I would ever see one of our birds in the air again. This particular Huey was in my old unit in Vietnam nam.

[@ABPhotography1]

God I love this Helicopter and its Awesome sound! :)

[@michaelmyers1993]

i love how you can hear this beast from like a mile away

[@halofighter1993]

now this is the way a huey is soupposed to sound, love it!!!!!!!!

[@STASH201161]

Certain machines have a sound of there own ,harleys,imprezas and hueys to name just 3

[@Toxicdemon2]

these heli's have the best sound ever

[@1973watchdog]

Outstanding video. The icon of the skies is glorified in this video. My passion to own and fly one is greater than any desire known. The look, the sound, the memories of flying in this marvel icon of rotor power only makes me crave to own one. I'l sell my house tomorrow to own one. Just need a tatts win, so anyone with the winning numbers. I'll be glad to take you on a joy flight or 3.

[@Sportster20042001]

very slick video, well done. also some beautiful scenery of England.

[@shexipk]

Nothing like a sound of huey!

[@scd96]

Thank you for your service, sir.

[@AtomicFire7676]

i love the sound of a huey

[@murmaider2]

i only got goosebumps when it flew over those trees in the beginning

[@vickihawk]

First helicopter I learned to fly was Bell Huey UH-1. They are noisy but by gosh they get the job done!

[@audigod]

Thanks for posting this video!!! Its great!! Love the Huey chopping!

[@PEDROCLASSIC]

they should have one out on display next to the VIETNAM MEMORIAL IN WASH DC

[@tayninh69]

Just listening to the audio on the video made the hair on my arms stand up.

[@bkhtrucking]

great vid that sound means so much to me thanks for up loading

[@OLT95]

i love this sound!!

[@Gieszkanne]

"....music is in the air..." :)

[@EmeraldJEM710]

The Huey is like the 57 Chevy of helicopters. That sound is so distinct to other helicopters, it's like comparing a Harley Davidson to a Suzuki. The only thing missing is Ride of the Valkyries.

[@alanrbx]

You sir, make my day, thx

[@umair-cheema]

I like sound of this machine.

[@AtomicFire7676]

the men in vietnam were givin hope when they heard this sound

[@jamesmartek6562]

BEST DAM HELICOPTER IN THE AIR,GOT ME THERE & BACK!

[@Randolph_]

@Robsdj Whoa! Apologies for the late reply. It's been a while. Thank you for the additional infos.

[@kevinsweeney2052]

The imposing sound of a Huey Bell Chopper!!!!

[@stuzzzart]

just super, think Robert Mason !

[@H1HU]

@N6600 On the roof there are the original aerials but the those pointing forwards above the windscreen and underneath the chin are wire cutters. I hope that solves the puzzle.

[@PasleyAviationPhotography]

yup got my Logitech Z-2300's blastin on this one ,hope my vietnam vet neighbor does get flashbacks from this ;) ,I wanna an audio copy to play on my way to work

[@marcebenz]

NICE!!!

[@PEDROCLASSIC]

The HUEY-1D is the most beautiful thing. SLICK!

[@cop91919]

This was the sound of an angel coming when I was injured in Iraq.

[@skywarp1]

That British pilot, that's flying the Huey, bought it in Seattle. Because, he loves the flying legend Sheep.

[@n3njeff]

I am glad I am not the only one

[@iksnadrac]

Greetz to you too, Ollie.

[@dicbomtoo7192]

it s an very nice video!!

[@Randolph_]

@Robsdj Thank you sir for the reply. Now I know, and that makes me appreciate this legend even more. Have a nice day. :)

[@UBIQUEROL]

THE greatest chopper the world has ever seen

[@brycepeterson1969]

You mean the greatest ever heard

[@brycepeterson1969]

Don’t get me wrong the looks on its are good but the sound just steals the show

[@barusahu2]

After getting home from Vietnam I realized there was one sound of war that I actually missed. That was the sound of the "Huey" aka "Dust-off." I commonly describe the Huey to people not familiar with it, as the "Harley Davidson" of Helicopters. Airplane flight is based on aerodynamics that enable the plane to be 'air friendly" by using the existing air patterns that surround it. The Huey, to the contrary; simply beats the air into submission.

[@MikonyaanGurevich]

You know that sound anywhere. Only one helicopter in the world makes that sound.

[@cptskellern]

@H1HU Just watched "we were soldiers" ...Can't believe i missed that film, some great huey footage in it. :)

[@UBIQUEROL]

she certainly is my friend over 50 years old but still strong

[@Randolph_]

from someone who loves helicopters, but has only few ideas about its mechanics, what are those small pointy things protruding from the roof on the front? are those for radar?

[@nitinsharma1000]

I love the whomp whomp whomp

[@cbyam1300]

This looks like Phil Connolly's Huey....he will be at Hoghton Tower on July 15 this year..... not to be missed.

[@TrainLover-fk2eo]

Man I wish I can see that heli 😢

[@kman-mi7su]

If freedom had a soundtrack, this would be it!

[@antoniodicuonzo4067]

Bellissimo

[@MegaG15]

And then.. think of it in 1960's... when like 10 hueys flying above u... sound of freedom

[@YvesAllen23]

one day i would become a pilot also,if i have the freedom to choose what helicopter i will choose this helicopter,.its just awesome,it is the most successful helicopter at all times,in korea, and in vietnam,,.i wont forget to pray to GOD that on the future i would be a successful pilot.

[@ronamulligan9701]

😅love the Huey always

[@user-sd6ip2jv1j]

(intro) The sound of Freedom !!

[@mondo78]

The Huey dosn't actually fly, it beats the hell out of the air to lift off. Nothing beats the sound of a Huey.

[@headstockfagburn]

Awesome sound, dedicated mic?

[@UBIQUEROL]

by far the best helicopter ever devised Chinook 2nd Cobra 3rd Huey 500 4th

[@cptskellern]

how long does she take to warm up before lift (mins or secs)?

[@H1HU]

Huey 509 isn't any louder than a D model but the sound is affected by several factors including the main rotor pitch, air speed and cloud cover (reflected sound) to name just a few. H1HU

[@lilpinga23]

i agree with ya there

[@ABPhotography1]

@AmericanelST205 - Me too!! :D

[@AmericanelST205]

i love huey! omg cooooooool i want fly with that, passenger? neeeed! :)

[@Randolph_]

@totole92 Thank you sir.

[@totole92]

Nope N660 those blades are to cut electric cables if the chopper happends to run into one at low altitude. They are still used today...

[@TheMastermccoy]

509 !!

[@kevinsweeney2052]

NUTHIN" matches a Huey for coolness jnbeatable!

[@clockman47]

Sounds like old times VMO-1

[@marymayes5056]

Can you imagine 30 to 40 of these coming at you n combat assault and we brought hell with us.r mayes

[@SIRSMITH08]

[@Helicopterpilot16]

[@arbitar222]

[@ABPhotography1]

@anglosax001 - I seen a chinook display, the Huey sound is wayyyyy better....

[@TheBarrettDude]

I plan on joining the military, but I can just imagine being shot at or somthing and hearing 20 or 30 of those in the distance, the watching the enemy shit themselves. Haha

[@vaporazor]

That sounds like... Death!

[@fernandopalem9434]

TERRIFIC CHOPTER!! FOR ME THE BEST HELICOPTER SAVED MANNY LIFES IN VIETNAM WAR. YET OUR DAYS DON T FORGET THIS CHOPTER!! IT S "ICONO" THE MORE FAMOUS NICKNAME HUEYYYYYY .

[@jamesbrown6982]

according to a documentary this heli is the only huey operating in the UK.

[@H1HU]

This is the only Huey flying in the UK that served in Vietnam. There is another that was 'liberated' from the Falklands flying over here.

[@huey-fan8335]

+H1HU And there is one that comes from Germany, a Bell 205A-1

[@elBocadillo08]

[@H1HU]

Chrger66 welcome home. Great that you have found this video. I'm not sure if you are aware but a bunch of 129th'ers get together at 129th.net if you introduce yourself on the Flight Log you might come across some names you know. H1HU.
