It is a monster but is in the Restricted Category. She sits in the Hanger it moves once in a blue moon. Yes saw it in the hangar 2 or 3 years ago.I believe the plan was to use it for training, cheaper on maintenance than your regular certified medium.

DGP Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 And here is the next question...can you convert a 212 to a 412 and then a 412 single? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcobra Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Sure! It just takes a bit of time and money to do the STC 😏. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winnie Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 the one in Carp is a UH-1M, a marine version of the C huey with Magnesium instead of Aluminum skin for maritime conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superwrench Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 On 4/30/2010 at 7:02 PM, Guest jacdor said: I am thinking that you might be refering to the Bell 214B which looks like a huey, sounds like a huey and I did hear here and there the 214B being called the super B Is it possible that it could be the one you are talking about? There is also the Bell 205B which is basicaly a huey11 only 3 made I believe built on a twin huey airframe and components but with one engine T53-17 JD The 205B was a modified Bell 205A-1. Bell had an SB for the conversion but only 4 were ever built. 2 in Canada still flying S/N 30188 and 30297. The Bell 210 ( pretty much same at Huey 2 and 205B) was built off UH-1H airframes zero timed and civilian certified. Bell again only built 4.

DGP Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Now once you get that 412 single could you run a T-55 with a 4 bladed t/r? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGP Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Its too bad they didn't drop a T-55 in that Kenting S-58...with the wheels you could really haul a load using a runway to get into translation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moffat Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 I used to be part owner of a superhuey. Kinda sounds like what you are talking about 212 commercial nose and drivetrain But a military airframe with -709 engine. It was originally built by Helipro for San Bernardino Sheriff dept. but they backed out. We eventually sold it to an outfit operating in Afghanistan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGP Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 This is a bit off track...but...I buddy of mine who went thru Canadore said he was in Dallas at Bell getting a 212 wrenching check out when he was asked if he wanted a 214B check out and a job in Iran...which he took them up on...this was in 1975. What he told me was very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
