160529 Ft, Niagara 3

An Army UH-1H helicopter took passengers on rides around Fort Niagara as part of the fort's Soldiers Through the Ages event this weekend. This "Huey" was first delivered to the Army in 1964 for service in Vietnam as a Dust Off Air Ambulance. Eventually it was donated to Burgard Vocational High School in Buffalo. After Burgard, the helicopter was donated to the Niagara Aerospace Museum. To avoid the "Huey" siiting in the elements, it was donated by the Niagara Aerospace Museum to the members of American Huey 369 who restored it and made it flight worthy once again.
