BeachAV8R Lifer Registered: 01/22/01 Posts: 22676 Loc: KCLT	Oddly enough..it was white. It went over my house at probably a few hundred feet enroute to somewhere. Half expected to see "UN" written on it! _________________________ Subscribe to PC Pilot! - I write for them!

msalama Member Registered: 07/27/05 Posts: 510	Well barring a false ID I'm pretty sure I saw a white-liveried Hind in Berlin, Germany last autumn - how's that for cool? An ex-NVA chopper on its way to UN service maybe?

BeachAV8R Lifer Registered: 01/22/01 Posts: 22676 Loc: KCLT	Now that is a good point - it could very well have been an Mi-17... _________________________ Subscribe to PC Pilot! - I write for them!

Reschke Plankowner Member Registered: 03/04/07 Posts: 1057 Loc: Vestavia, AL	They have several down at Eglin AFB in Florida and they use them constantly for training groups on operation and usage of the foreign choppers. Buddy of mine is a former AC-130 pilot and is now learning how to operate rotor wing aircraft as part of a Joint Spec Ops program that has him shooting, performing CQB drills, offensive and defensive driving and learning foreign languages. _________________________ VF-17 "The Jolly Rogers" i7-2600K @ 3.4GHz 8GB RAM EVGA GeForce GTX470 EVGA X67 SLI Samsung DVD Burner Samsung SyncMaster P2770FH TrackIR 5 with Track Clip Pro Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit Warthog #1397...compliments of SimHQ
