Photo Comment

Former US Army UH-1H 69-15676, this Iroquois was converted to an EH-1H before sold to USDA Forest Service March 1992. Placed with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CDF now known as CAL Fire), this aircraft remains in service as Sikorsky Firehawks are being brought online at major bases.
