The sound of a Huey's blades chopping the air will always be the sound of a helicopter for me. Love it.

No other helicopter has such an iconic sound and has become so well known as the Huey. She was a tough gal that could take the fight to the enemy and get her men back home safely, even if she was falling apart. From a medical evacuation concept, to war hero, to immortalized legend in the world of cinema and video games. People will still remember the UH-1 Huey even after 100 years.

Flew UH-1 Hotel back in 1970 and early 71 in country. God I love that aircraft! The rocking motion at startup, to the vibrations of the air frame at take off. That vibration telling me everything you needed to know about her. No matter how beat up she was, always manage to get all of us back safe. Have to admit, I had some doubts at the time and got a ass chewing for her condition a couple times. I believe, it made me a better pilot knowing and trusting the aircraft. Whether you were in the States or in country at that time. No one sight are smell would remind everyone of the Vietnam war. The wop wop sound from the wide-chord blades, does for all of us. It still gives me a rush and my old pecker hard!

Because if you're watching a movie or lokking at a picture, you don't even need to know the name of the movie or what it's about at first sight, or what the captions on the picture say once you see the UH-1 huey, you know instantly it's about Vietnam.

Beautiful. Miss my younger days as a 67N10 Huey mechanic/crew chief. As an A+P now..... no aircraft I have worked on brings to my heart and being the feeling the UH-1H, 1D did. I remember standing on the top of the airframe holding onto the rotor mast and scissor/swashplate arm while little kids waved. Walking in for lunch in a flight suit after landing. Testing engine igniter's... POP, POP, POP! Tapping on the removed rotors and that sound down the honeycomb. I joined the Army for this aircraft and I still love it. Should have been a pilot instead of a mechanic, though, I think sometimes.

I went to a helicopter show here in NZ a few years ago and had the absolute privilege to be front row centre (literally, REALLY close ) while one of these amazing machines went through startup, to lifting off. The crack of the rotors travelling up through my legs into my brain gave me goosebumps. Absolutely one of my favorite moments. It may be something of a dinosaur now, but few machines inspire such emotions. Massive respect to the soldiers that served in Vietnam in these noble steeds

Best sound in the world. Blackhawks will never replace the Huey in my heart. The Huey will always be the best utility chopper in the world to me! The "thwop-thwop-thwop" sound was probably the most beloved sound a soldier could hear in Vietnam. My father flew slicks in Vietnam for the first couple months before transitioning into the Cobra gunship. I grew up hearing the Huey all the time. Thank you very much for posting this!

The many warfighter that could depend on that very tough bird to evacuate or resupply the troops. God bless those who served!

I remember riding one of this military helicopters. I was bitten by a dog that has rabies and need emergency treatment but at that time it was only a town. If we take a bus, it will take 12-14 hrs to arrive to the city. The plane only travels there 3x a week. But good thing one of my uncle who pilots this babies is there from a joint helicopter exercise and i was permited to ride one of the 6 helicopters. Of course im on the one with uncle piloting it. It took 2-3 hrs of travel to get me to a general hospital and free of charge since my grandfather is also working at the military. And here i am 28 years later. Ill never ever forget the sound of this helicopter in my entire life. It is the sound of hope for me.

Marine Corps Avionics Tech. on UH-1N 1980 to 1984 never forget the sound OUTSTANDING Shout out to all that heard her!!!

I'm very lucky to live in a city where the UH-1 is used by our police department for search and rescue. I live pretty close to an area frequented by them and get to hear that amazing sound once or twice a week.

I'm so glad that this video is PURE Huey Sound, with zero music to ruin one second of it!!

Growing up in Kentucky, I used to hear these all the time, along with the Chinook 47s. I remember when they'd approach, they'd rattle every window in the house and I loved it! I lived near the Bluegrass Army Depot and they'd frequently fly in formation over my house. It was so awesome! Thank you for the video and memory because the Blackhawks just aren't the same.

Grew up around Huey's... Beautiful sound, never gets old!

This brings back memories.....of my time with Navy aviation and in particular Hueys with HC-3 and F4s during Vietnam........NAS Imperial Beach and NAS Miramar

I am so in awe of this machine - The Huey is such an iconic piece of machinery, it is a dream of mine to own one. Would love to take a trip with the Sky Soldiers but as I live in the UK it's going to have to wait a few years until I get over there!! Thanks for posting some great footage

I always scram outside my house everytime I hear an inbound chopper just to see it. Badass fucking machine!

First time I ever saw one was when I was 5 yrs old. Living in West Germany. The pilots always waved to us kids on the ground. Memories of that will be with me forever

I dont know why, but i love the sound of choppers, it sounds satisfying, mostly at the distance.

My dad said that was the best sound he had ever heard after being on patrol all day. It was also the longest, waiting for the choppers to pick up the troops while taking on fire from the VC.

Beautiful sound, legendary. Thank you for uploading this.

Nothing beats the sound of an old Huey beating the blades through the air. My family all fought in Vietnam and while it's been said here in the comments before, it was a sound my family members said was a sound that meant either, reinforcements, a ride home, extraction, ECT. Love to our vets!!!
