rbrown7713 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Christian, I have about 50 hours in a Piper Cub, close in design to the L4, if not the same. I have many hours of pleasure in that aircraft. And this is what I flew in Viet Nam, in fact this Huey is from the same company that I flew in, Little Bears, 25th Aviation battalion, noted by the white little bear on the nose. Bob.

rbrown7713 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Yes Christian, I was a pilot, with 2,000 hrs. flown in the Army, 1,120 hrs. in Nam. I was a CW2. Last 2 years, I was a primary instructor pilot at Fort Wolters Texas 1969 and 1970. Here is a picture after an 8 hr. mission in 1968. I'm the one on the right. And you were an accident investigator, very good. Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christian clavel Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 Not spécially for aérial accidents .There is a suitable service https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Transport_Gendarmerie my work was for "" district attorney " (Procureur de la République ) and all investigations for the judge I was an ""invistigating Officer "" and it was a very interesting good job and refused all ranks to remain an investigator . copter or small plane or native south American pirogue were used because no roads in jungle (before 1989 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
