after many times flying in the Huey in Viet Nam,50 years later I took another ride in one at an Airshow in TN. At 5,000 ft',no doors and sitting on the edge looking out AND down,,,I was lets say very concerned as to why I was doing this,,,,,the young rider of along time ago had "faded away" and the grandpa was in His place....Glory days had ended for me...but will never forget the SOUND,,,just plain AWESOME

Beautiful bird. I've flown many times in a Huey, and parachuted out of one many times. Love Hueys!

I'm still waiting to find one of the old Hueys at an airshow that features rides. Been 45 years and I'd LOVE to do it one more time.

My first ride was in 1980. Would become a eunuch if I could fly in one again.

I have many hours as a door gunner in the UH-1E. The Marines are still flying the UH-1Y &Z models. It's a great aircraft.

This was our daily ride. I always like being upstairs. Our ride was a bit more CRAZY. I actually took my first ride in June 2021 since November 1969. Brings back old memories.

That place looks familiar. I've been there it's in Orlando on International Drive. I've taken about 10 helicopter rides there but never seen the Huey. That's awesome to ride in a Huey!

È un bellissimo elicottero. Da quello che vedo, si tratta di un volo di divertimento. A questo punto non mi resta altro, che fare alle persone che vi sono saliti a bordo, l'augurio di un buon giro un'elicottero. Giuseppe Perrotta di Comiso RG, ma residente a Mazzarrone CT. Cordiali saluti.

Even though the Huey reminds all of us of American defeat in Nam, and pales in comparison of size and performance to the Soviet Mi8, it the most iconic helicopter in history. Paired with its versatility compared to the bulky and huge Mi8, it makes for a helicopter that can take on many many roles
