drjump 0 #27 May 26, 2005 In 1972 the Fort Hood Sport Parachute hosted the USPA '72 south west conference meet. The Army supplied UH-1's for Style and Accuracy, and 4 way, Chinooks's for 10 man speed stars. This was the meet that Harold McElfish had a ten second PC ride! Seems like his goggles blew off in FF and he could not read his altimeter! Doc D-2785 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beenthere 0 #28 May 30, 2005 Many of previously listed AC including a couple of great rides in a Luftwaffe UH-1 at Warendorf, a couple out of a Confederate AF B-17, but what I found most interesting was the difference in the condition of CH-47's one maintained by Calif. Air National Guard in spotless condition compared to several CH-47's in Seoul Korea which had "oil slicks" on the ramp from leaking trans fluid. Also have to say, the cleanest air from ramp to freefall definately the MI-8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
