MSS Holding Bell UH-1H Iroquois G-UHIH

Photographer's remark
(8.6.2010, 21:13 CET)
This is a seldom photographed feature on all US Military aircraft. It is called the Technical Data Block (TDB) The type is incorrectly shown as UH-1H, it should be UH-1H-BF, the BF denotes that it was built by Bell at their Forth Worth plant. The aircraft serial 72-21509 denotes that it was paid for out of the 1972 fiscal budget, the 21509 being a sequential serial number. The rest of the information refers to the type of fuel required, so that ground crews will know what type of fuel to use, which in this case is Jet A-1.
