Pictured after sunset (ISO 12000) over the Potomac River in D.C. This Huey is former US Navy BuNo 158562. After its career with the US Marine Corps, the helicopter arrived at AMARG on 26 January 2011 with inventory code 7H0057. After some seven months of storage, the USAF selected the Bell for conversion. The helicopter was taken from AMARG on 18 August 2011 and was moved to Fleet Readiness Center East Cherry Point (NC) for depot-level maintenance overhaul. During 2014 it was taken on strength of the 1st Helicopter Squadron at Andrews AFB (MD). This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
