This shot was taken at Queen City airport, part of the Allied Air Force planes, aeroweb lists it as a CH-3B with number 62-12576, doesn't seem to me to be correct. Any help.

Bill.

Baugher's site lists 62-12576 as one of a group of three CH-3B's that were delivered to the USAF and then transfered to the Navy and converted to SH-3H's.

That's assuming the s/n is correct.

That makes more sense, thanks.

The helos, when the photo was taken were further east in the satellite view. I don't know when the satellite image was taken, so they may be where they are shown now.
