Any UH-60 pilots on here?

[Pichettet1]

Like the title says, just looking to see how many fellow Blackhawk pilots are on the forum. I'm pretty new around here, just seeing if we've got much of a rotor community.

Additionally, any hawk guys who also fly 121 or 135 fixed wing? I'm going to start working on my certs soon and will probably need some mentorship along the way.

Cheers

Very nice. We have the wonderful privilege to have A, A+ and L birds up here in Maine. Are you air assault at Carson?

Military, you can't throw a rock without hitting 50 or more Blackhawk guys.

Well that's good news. Glad to hear I'm not alone!

I'm in the IERW pipeline at Rucker now. Heading to the 60M course.
I'm a 121 guy otherwise.
Welcome aboard.

Ah mother Rucker. Definitely don't miss that place. What phase are you in at the moment?

Rucker misses you, and wants you back.....

Fortunately for me, there are very few things I'd have to visit for. CCC is the only one that comes to mind.

Excellent! Good luck. I finished back in 2012. If you have any questions, send me a PM.

Thanks! I'm front loading daily questions, and trying to organize a few things.
I appreciate it!

That's a good plan. Leaves more time for 5&9's.

There are several of us around here. Check out the "Helicopter Pilot" Forum for screen names.

I'm a retired UH60 SIP but it's been about 6 years since I had the priviledge of flying one.......

Passenger here, I appreciate the rides guys.

Same appreciation here. Many thanks for bringing me food, mail, and taking the homely looking ones at the pub. And I would also like to say you're welcome to all you fellas who have had the distinct honor of occasionally taking real helicopter pilots aboard when they need a lift.

We love flying real helicopter pilots. Especially these guys.

Must have been in a big hurry to return to the maintenance hangar.
