UH-1H

The UH-1H, an evolution of the Bell Iroquois, is a utility helicopter renowned globally for its role in military transport and civil operations. Its distinctive shape and durability established it as one of the most recognizable rotorcraft in history. The UH-1H variant features improved engines and systems over earlier models, enhancing its performance and utility for missions ranging from cargo transport to medical evacuation.

Garlick Helicopters, based in California, plays a crucial role in maintaining the legacy of the Huey through comprehensive support and modification. While the original Huey was designed and manufactured by Bell Helicopter, specialized companies like Garlick ensure these indispensable aircraft remain operational.

A range of platforms and access solutions assists with detailed maintenance across the UH-1H. Access for the nose section, including the windshield and cockpit, is essential for avionics work. Modular platforms and trestle systems support maintenance along the fuselage, facilitating access to cabin doors and the environmental control system. The vertical stabilizer and horizontal stabilizer on the tail section also require stable access for thorough inspection and servicing.
