Vietnam era USN Huey for sale

Could be a neat project for anybody who knows how to restore aircraft.

Re: Navy Huey for sale

If I had an extra $33,000 I would definatly buy it. Who cares if I get it airworthty, I would just love to park it in my driveway and see what the neighbors think. At least it will get me away from the TV...or maybe I would put a big screen TV in front of it, and watch nothing but war movies with me sitting in the cockpit and dreaming about leading the incoming flight. I can just picture myself watching Apocalypse Now listening to Wagner's "Ride of The Valkyries".
 

Always, Always, Always, No matter what...Confirm the amount of fuel in your tanks before you takeoff!

Re: Navy Huey for sale

Wonder if it comes fully armed too. Would be great for the morning commute to work. It would be a great way to take care of the little smart asses that like to weave in and out of traffic in their crap-mobiles.

Re: Navy Huey for sale

Too bad there weren't better pictures of the main rotor blades. So Hobby Master could see how bad they messed up the main rotor blades on the upcoming Hueys.

The latest HM pics on the RAAF show that they've fixed the blades, among other things. Don't know if that's the case with the first couple of releases.

Just went to Hawkonevoodoos site and the Huey main rotor blades still are messed up with the two raised ridges on each blade on all three aircraft. also only the main rotor hub should be painted grey not the half-circular lay ups of the main rotor blade and the drag brace.

On the UK site, William posted pics of the RAAF version with the corrected blades:
