*****Note--According to Pat Rodgers of theWhittier Aviation Museum, in Riverside,Ca."I discovered UH-1C 65-09506, aka bandit 7, at China Lake Naval Weapons Test Center. She was used as a target for missile testing of some sort. I have not been allowed to take pictures on the range, but she's been shot up pretty bad. I've got parts of her here at the museum, mostly stuff from the M5 gun system, but some other bits and pieces that were serviceable have been installed on our B model, so part of her will fly again!" 10-26-03*****
