I was so lucky to get this image, years ago. This is an electronic version of an old 35mm.
Maggie Terlecki
All these helicopters in a row through this smoky sky is definitely dramatic.
Dick Hudson replied:
Thank you, Maggie. It was a great day for our unit, when our training produced the right results.

Dick Hudson replied:
Thanks, Mark. I went back to Rucker two years ago.The glory days are over. But Daleville Inn, aka Menopause Manor, is still there.

Thank you, Ronald. I was lucky to be there, in a rare moment when I had a camera in the cockpit.

Wow...what a unique image.
Dick Hudson replied:
Thank you. I took it from the unseen rear helicopter as we were flying to a load out exercise many years ago.

Great composition! Love how you can see the landscape while keeping the focus on the helicopters.
Dick Hudson replied:
Thank you. This is one of my favorite photos, especially since there are few of those old helicopters serving anymore.
