| Denis , FL | I work on the MH-60S which is more advance tan the "L" version. I love the helo, BUT some of the stuff I encounter seem to me like the engineers who desing this stuff don't think how inconvenient it is to replace parts. 01/13/2007 @ 15:35 [ref: 15179] |

| Jyle , KY | Andres,
I guess you can learn a lot from reading books to make toys helicopters, but really, calling TF 160th "primadonnas" (that is the proper spelling, is pretty presumptious. What do you fly? :) 09/22/2004 @ 15:11 [ref: 8312] |
| Andres Mora Caracas, FL | Hello, My name is Andres Mora, from Caracas, Venezuela, IŽam a plastic model builder, in Choppers class, the \\\"L\\\" of the movie \\\"Blackhawk down\\\" is a modificated \\\" L\\\" to the prima dona Army aviators group 160 SOA \\\"Nightstalker\\\" this group have the best choppers of the US Army, MH-60K, MH-6J Little bird, AH-6J gunship Littlebird, MH-60 DAP (Direct Armored penetrator), MH-47E, This L is almost a Pave Hawk, All wather radar, Sensors, Flir, HUDŽs, Miniguns, tail sensor, etc. many variations in placement of equipment can be found. Also it is rare that two aircraft have the same configurations. The missions of these aircraft may be armed or unarmed, They may be run in pairs or in groups of 4 o more, This has a wide variety of needs onto a limited number of aircraft.While closely resembling the HH-60G of the USAF, the Mh-60L has unique differences. The auxiliary controls panels located at the aft end of the center pedestal is a fine example. the panel have be found to be separate units reflecting installation at diferente times . Various types of control faces have been incorporated into and onto the glareshield, Typically, the aircraft is armed for defensive purposes with two manually directed miniguns. 09/21/2002 @ 16:25 [ref: 5730] |
