Good pic of CVW-5

Count 'em. 12 SH-60Bs (2 from the HSL-49 det that used to work from the HSL-51 hangar) and 2 H-3's.

12 SH-60Bs and not one can fly tight parade.

Hell, I am amazed an HSL CO authorized a large dissimilar form...

That's impressive. I didn't know there were that many spare parts in the supply system.

That was Ops Normal for us. Had to have a way to get everyone home.

AW's never ceases to amaze me ... the aircraft/ship posts/threads ALWAY seem to drift into crotches, fat chicks, and what to do with 'em ....

I blame it on Helo_Wifey...she started it with the "Helos need lovin too" comment.

From there it was just a natural progression.

Thanks HAL...but you started in on the fat chicks... I know better than to mention fat chicks

Like I said, natural progression. Helos ----> fat chicks

My wife started getting fat about the time I started the HTs...

It all boils down to this:

Actually at some point the rest of the photos will be out and there should be one of our helos in those. Nothing like flying a TERF flight and doing LZ work up at Fuji in the snow. Good times. I just need to find those pictures I have.

The CO not only authorized it, he ordered it.

The queen didn't have many parts left at the time.

Hey now, I'm a Helo Bubba and my wife's not a fat chick... Maybe it's because I'm on terminal, working on my Goatee...

There's some great VFR flying to be done in Japan - decent low levels too.

The Blue route is one of my favorite low levels.
