EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Dornier-Bell UH-1D 71+57, a German military helicopter belonging to Hubschraubertransportgeschwader 64 (HTG 64), as it prepares for an air display at Nordholz Air Base on August 18, 1996. The Dornier-Bell UH-1D, with the manufacturing serial number 8217, is a variant of the iconic Bell UH-1 Iroquois helicopter, specifically designed and produced for the German Luftwaffe. The "D" in the registration number signifies "Deutschland," and this helicopter is not related to the US Army UH-1D. The UH-1D is a versatile and powerful transport helicopter, capable of performing various roles, including troop transport, medical evacuation, and cargo lifting. The aircraft's distinctive features include its twin-engine configuration, five-bladed main rotor, and retractable landing gear. The photo showcases the UH-1D in its element, standing proudly at the airbase, ready to take center stage during the display. The vibrant colors of the Luftwaffe livery contrast sharply against the blue sky, making for a stunning visual representation of German aviation history. HTG 64, based at Nordholz Air Base, is one of the German Air Force's helicopter transport units, responsible for providing air transport services to the Bundeswehr (German military). The unit's fleet consists primarily of the Dornier-Bell UH-1D, making it an essential part of the German military aviation community. This photograph, taken from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the history of German military aviation and the role of the Dornier-Bell UH-1D within it.
