This HOS-1, acquired and restored by the American Helicopter Museum and Education Center (AHMEC), was designated Gander Express following the 1946 rescue of injured passengers from a crashed Sabena Airlines DC-4 airliner in Gander, Newfoundland, by a Coast Guard HNS-1 (R-4) and the HOS-1 (R-6). Is AHMEC's HOS-1 the original Gander Express? We cannot be sure the entire aircraft is. While the log book and paper trail indicate that it is, the aircraft was received in parts and two major pieces (the fuselage and tail boom) did not perfectly align, suggesting those parts are from two aircraft.

This Enstrom F-28A was built in 1966 as an F-28 and was the second production helicopter built by Enstrom. It was flown to Detroit, Michigan and exhibited in a trade show where it won an award for best product design in Michigan, beating out the Ford Mustang. In September 1967, ownership was transferred to AiResearch Corp. where it had an Allison turboshaft engine installed and was operated as a test bed called the T-28 Prototype. In 1973 the aircraft was returned to Enstrom and was remanufactured as an F-28A, its present configuration.

First flown in 1987 as a company funded technology demonstrator. Although similar in appearance to the CH-46, it is substantially different incorporating major use of composite materials. Much of the technology used and tested went on to be incorporated in the RAH-66 Comanche program as well as the V-22 Osprey. Last flown in 1993 and donated to the museum in 1999.
