Sorta looking like I may be back down that way again the 1st part of June, to see my kid an his family. He is living in Flower Mound now. Lived over in Arlington/Grand Prairie before.

Of course, when I returned to Wolters in late 68 as an Instructor Pilot, I was put in a TH-55 as an Instructor.

Love old films!
Chopper Pilot - shows the training of helicopter pilots by the United States Army, with an emphasis on pre-flight and flight training provided by the warrant officer candidate program at Fort Wolters, Texas and advanced training at the Army Aviation Center, Fort Rucker, Alabama.
You'll see the pilots learn basic helicopter flight techniques using the Hughes TH-55 training helicopter, and then move onto the Bell UH-1 "Huey" for more advanced training.
