Description
This Huey has documented Vietnam combat history. It was in an incident on 8/01/1966 while moving external loads
while serving in the 119th AHC “Gators”. 119th Aviation Company of the 52nd Aviation Battalion was based in Pleiku
at Camp Holloway. The Pilot was a WO1, Donald C. Glauthier. Donald passed away in 2002 but we were able to also
confirm our documentation with his daughter recently. She was very excited to see her father’s Huey restored back to
its original condition.
This Huey was acquired from a government surplus auction as a fuselage. It was built up by Northwest Helicopters
Inc. and used in many airshows and movies. You would have seen this Huey in Movies such as: Xmen, Only the
Brave, and Kong, Skull Island. It was only a couple of years ago it was discovered that SN 64-11710 was an actual
War Hero. That is when we decided to do further research and put it back into its original wartime configuration.
We have completely inspected the helicopter and all ADs are complied with, the Huey is fully assembled and flying with FAA Experimental/Exhibition Certification.
This helicopter is in stock military configuration with new exterior paint.
Located in Olympia, WA this helicopter can be delivered by truck or flown home today!
