Any Pilots Here?

I didn't realize there was a military version of the Jetranger.

The "standard" military version is the OH-58, can't remember what they called the one in the picture.

What do you fly for LifeFlight? I am with PHI Air Medical......fly those weird french birds.

Flew MU-2's for a year.....

Yeah much longer than that and you probably wouldn't be here. Well I take that back, a guy with your qualifications probably OK, but man those things are real killers.

...those things are real killers...Gilly

I understand that the accident rates have decreased dramatically since the FAA mandated special type specific initial and recurrent training for the MU2Bs.

I have long been fascinated by these machines.

Thanks for asking Retired PD!!! Air Methods Baptist Lifeflight program; I'm @ the Pensacola base (Lifeflight 1)..SPIFR EC-135 for years.....just went to EC-130...like our other bases (Mobile, Hattiesburg, & Greenville, AL.

Miss the 135...flew it for 8 years....but times change....no??

[brownie]

They're pretty wild...you just can't fly 'em like a gentleman's aircraft.....gotta be on top of things if one of those Garretts burps!!!!! Taught me a lot about MEL flying!!
My favorite airplane ever tho' is still the North American T-28 (~700 hrs).

Of course my experience is mostly from the 80s when they were killing pretty regularly.
