As a Chinook guy, you should've corrected him that the helo is a Sea Knight/Phrog. It's easy enough to tell the difference, so calling all banana helos "Chinooks" is bad practice, since Chinooks and Sea Knights aren't even in the same weight class. EDIT: Knight, not King.

When I was in the Army, I was in a Chinook outfit (242 AVN, Sugar Bears). During one field trip we meet with some Cobra pilots. Of course, one of the questions from the Chinook pilots was "How fast does it go?" The Cobra pilot responded "Well, it's red lined at 190 . . . . . . . but she'll go 210."

This brings back many memories. In 1962 I flew in S2F1,s in 1962. We then were changing to S3F3.s (twice the range). These were real Hot Rods designed to fly 50 to100 feet over water looking for subs. Great planes for their time. Many thanks. Lots were converted to fire dropping as they are/were very versatile in tight areas.

​@jerodharris AH-1s have a stabilized gun mount. Obviously, the gun is a no-go and probably missing. However film studios used to use the stabilizer to mount cameras. Before drones were popular the go to for aerial camera shots was a Helicopter. Top Gear crashed an AH-1 doing that exact thing not too long ago.

I know you're a helicopter guy, but as an old Coast Guard Aviation Electrician, my heart goes to the Albatross HU16E. I only flew in one once, but that water landing was something to remember. Most of my flying was as Loadmaster on C-123Bs back in 1969-1973.

Get the Cobra. By the way all AH-1s had dual controls. The trick was that the front seat controls were much more sensitive than the rear. While the pedals were the same, the collective and cyclic had a 3-1 ratio back seat to front seat and rather than fly with the whole arm the front seater was just flying with his wrists. Because of this it was one of the most difficult Army helicopters to hover.

The CH46 requires a lot of maintenance to keep it operational. One thing we learned in the Marines, dont worry if you see it leaking fluids. Thats normal. The time to worry is when it stops leaking fluid, that means its out... That CH46 is missing the Auxillary float bladders that the entire fleet should have been outfitted with. Saddle bags mid fuselage that hold floats that would inflate if the bird went down in water.

I’m a helicopter mechanic, probably why KZbin recommended your channel. I love helicopters but I’ve always had a soft spot for twin turboprops. I love that OV-10 Branco. That thing is so bad ass. If you love power you’ll love those TPE-331s. I worked on those engines for a few years on a twin commander. That thing took off like a rocket ship. Get that Branco back in the air. I don’t see enough of them still flying. The marines would put some grunts in the back of that thing, go vertical, and dump them out the ass end. That would make a great video if you could pull that maneuver off.

The CH-46 and the Albatross are the two I would like to see you get, both would be great for scouting recoveries. Instead of say taking a truck somewhere to scout a sunken boat, just take the Albatross and land on the water. And the CH-46, well, come on you gotta have it. Could load it full of tools and maybe vehicles to do remote recoveries.

The Dept of State bought a bunch of the CH46 from the Marines and they delivered them from southern California to FLA. They had to turn off all the safety gear since it wouldn't let the helo fly if enabled... I think two of them had to stop for service along the way and the others left the straglers behind. They followed I-10 from their base in CA to FL and then headed south to the base. On a side note, The Dept. of State used the OV-10 for years as a spray plane in their drug interdiction squad. As they stopped using the OV-10 and used the AirTractor. Their last OV-10 went to the Tico Airport in Titusville for a museum airplane. They towed it up US-1 and blocked traffic one afternoon for MILES! The Cessna SkyMaster looked like a cool aircraft but it couldn't fly very high on one engine, and you had to sync the engines or it would shake you to death. Because of the extra weight of two engines, it couldn't do very well, especially on higher altitudes without both engines running.

My BiL (deceased) was a Cobra pilot. The front seat always had a set of controls. The front seat was for the co-pilot/gunner. After all, a pilot could be wounded. They had abbreviated instruments and could not perform tasks such as starting the helicopter. The S2 made a fine water bomber but it wasn't designed as one. It was designed for COD missions. My dad flew the O-2B in Viet Nam and dozens of others during his career. He was conducting super secret squirrel missions regularly taking him over the "fence".

First on the List would be that Albatross for me. Second would be the OV-10 Bronco. With the Albatross I would be able to do my most loved thing, Fly in fishing trips. Being able to fly into remote lakes and fish and camp would be a dream come true for me. I already have my ground school I could easily finish off my license with an amphibious aircraft and use it as my mode of transport to remote locations. Will all the room in that plane I would be able to fully equipe myself for a reasonable stay in a remote lake in the North somewhere and do my level best to catch trophy level fish! A seaplane would be perfect in every way, because it isn't just limited to water, as we can also see it has landing gear. so flying across country wouldn't be a real issue, stopping along the way to refuel and continue. I'm not going to lie, the Frog would also be a worthy craft to own, although it would require a large enough area to land, there are still many places you could go with it. But I'm just not that into rotary with aircraft like Dave is, I prefer traditional aircraft as they have a higher speed and typically range as well.

In the second yard in the barn, toward the end of the video, Hans was sitting on a flatbed wagon with a seat and a steering wheel. When I was in the Marine Corps we had one of those and called it a Mule. The one we had would go up to 25 or 30 mph. It was fun to drive but easy to flip. Realistically speaking that would be the one I would want for sentimental reasons.

That’s a favorite of mine, there was an operational fire bomber squadron of them stationed at the local airport in Kalispell Montana when I was a teenager in the 80’s. I can totally see Dave getting the CH46 because he could actually use it, and an Albatross would be wicked cool!!

My First die-cast model when I was a kid was an OV-10 and I still have it today after 40 or so years. It was so fascinating because it didn't look like a normal plane. The Chinook is also a second choice....but just imaging flying a OV-10 as I bet no one has in years.

I would definitely get the Chinook mainly because it's a very versatile aircraft we've had a lot of fires where I live and the local fire department actually owns Chinooks to drop water and fire retardant. But I think for you it would definitely be an asset to you especially since you do the rescues.

The 46 and cobra are obviously the coolest to most. Personally i love the albatross. That fella has one hell of a collection.

Albatross, paint it yellow and name it the Sea Duck! I realize it's not the same, but still. Tail spin was probably my favorite cartoon when I was little.

The twin engined plane that they call a water bomber is actually a Grumman C-1 Trader which was used originally as a COD . Used for transportation of goods and personnel aboard aircraft carriers. I road one of the last in service from NAS Willow Grove , PA. I was a crewman aboard USS Forrestal CV59 and the plane belonged to us to give the pilots flight time while we were in overhaul at PNSY Philadelphia 1985. The aircraft was flown to Davis Monthan soon afterwards.

The CH-46, the Cobra, and that nifty little flatbed power cart all need to go home with you! There was so much cool stuff in that second building, it was just overwhelming. I have a neighbor that lives up in the Gila Natl. Forest that has a couple of those flatbed carts, and I tried several times over the last 20 years to buy one, but he would never turn loose of them. I'm too old to even mess with it now, so just a moot point I guess!😄👍👍

Do the old man a favor and offer to continue his legacy and keep the museum available to aviators of the world when he passes. I'm sure he sees the nation and love he has in you and would be glad to know his legacy is in good hands for the future. You may be able to acquire the museum as a whole. It's your passions combined that he would be proud to know all he has worked for won't be divided once he moves on. You can buy single items or carry on his lifes work. What would you do if someone offered to do that for you and your legacy of life? 👊🙂 Make the old man happy!

The albatross and sea knight is a no brainer. A plane that can land on water is very very helpful. The sea knight, you might need to have one of your guys get trained up with you to fly. Would be a great recovery helicopter. Can’t imagine how many things you can pull out with what.

OV-10 Bronco, versatile and utility. Designed by 2 Marine pilots who served in Vietnam. I hear they are still used in the Philippines. Last war served in was the Gulf War. CH-46 is interesting but I had a Chinook fall out of the air and was not a fun landing so I am a little biased.

The Cobra could be used to help fight forest fires, I think Florida has one. The Sea Knight could be used for search and rescue. And well the OV-10 is just bad ass, it actually has a small cargo hold in the back. Marines would be in it and then the OV-10 would go vertical and the Marines would be dumped out, obviously with parachutes.
