I see they are destroying them in Korea.
We can't allow them to fall into North Korean Hands.

Them things were never anygood could never hold a candle to the OH 6A now that was an airplane. The only thing that kept the Loch out of the sky was a drunk pilot.

The market place seems to disagree with you, as the Bell outsole the OH-6/500 market by a considerable amount.


The OH-6 was good, but that doesn't mean you have to badmouth the competition....unless you have significant hours in each type.

I may be wrong, but I took it as tongue-in-cheek sarcasm wrapped in brand loyalty. Mebbee a veteran of the OH-6. Bummer for the Kiowa, but each smashed one makes the survivors that much rarer.
