Nice list Hans!

P-3C 159325 is reported as being w/o 21mar91. Maybe misread for 157325 (EP-3E?) or 159326?

Cheers,

Hope this helps.

Hi Hans,

At the flightline F/A-18D from the BA was parked 163468/7. The Jet Provost was the N327RM. Currently working at our log will sent it to you when ready.

Hi Tim,

The Jet Provost was the N8272M (ex RAF XP567).

Hans,

UH-1H 70-16426 N426HF USArmy

These two UH-1Hs that you saw at the Beaufort airshow are operated by the AAHF - the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation. They also have a number of Cobra's (the Sky Soldiers demo team) and a single airworthy AH-1F. While the AAHF flies and maintains these helicopters, some if not most of them are still property of the US Army. The AAHF is based out of Tara Field (Hampton, GA) and they have about 15 UH-1Hs for spare (and two ultra rare UH-1Ms) outside their hanger. In the back of the storage hanger, they have about 8-9 AH-1F's, most of them are ex National Guard (TN, MD, etc). Their operational hanger contains the AH-1s of the Sky Soldiers team, a AH-1F and about 4 flyable UH-1Hs.

PS: please do not "raid" the place - if you ask nicely, they are more than happy to show enthusiasts around!
