If'n all ya'all want to hear a "Huey" thumpin, get a copy of "Apocalypse".

 

You can hear them in chorus.

 

Flew a 2by4 on the Ivory Coast for ONCHO and never had to wait for a taxi at any local airport.

 

Cheers, Don

That would be a handy tool up in the Artic where northern Time applies. You could at least give them a 20 min warning. LOL :lol:

TQN: At the airport in Calgary you can hear them once they leave the mountains. Takes about a half hour for it to reach the airport.

 

Love the sound.

 

Shades of straight pipes I had on a 38 Ford convertible in the fifties, great sound.

Yahbut I don't want to have to go clear to Calgary (no offense)! I'm tryin' to sweet-talk Jim Paules (American Heroes Airshow Network producer) into bringin' 'em to Denver. I think he thinks I'm nuts at this point. :lol: I imagine that sound echoing off the mountains is fabulous.

That would be awesome. I had the priviledge once of watching the Swiss airforce practicing low level dogfighting in a mountain valley. THey were breaking the sound barrier on a regular basis. My brother and I could hardly speak they were so loud as the noise vibrated off the mountains. But 35 Bell's would be too much. :shock: Could only feel and listen to that. Awe inspiring.

 

cheers.
