VH-UHC Bell 206A
Jet
Ranger
(c/n 67)
This Jet Ranger came in from Mexico in 1967,
where it had been XA-BIZ. It was one of the
vast fleet of
Airfast Helicopters. As were many of its
ilk, it was operated in PNG in 1974
where it
was re-registered into the PNG register as P2-UHB. Returning to
the mainland in 1975
it was restored as VH-UHC again. Mike Madden saw it (above) at
Bankstown in 1978 when
it appears to
have been leased to a local sports TV channel. In 1979
Airfact sent it off to Irian
Jaya whereupon
it was entered on to the Indonesian register as PK-OBG.
Its ultimate fate is
unknown.
