This holds three world rotary- wing records in time-to-climb and speed categories. The actual helicopter that set the records, in Texas last year, is on static display and is making demonstration flights. Later it will tour Europe. The UH-1D in 1962 established its records by averaging 134.9 m.p.h. over a 1,000km (621.4 miles) closed circuit, by climbing S,000m (9,843ft) in 2min 17.3sec, and by climbing 6,000m (19,686ft) in 5min 47.3sec. The UH-1D is a 13-seater with a Lycoming T53-L-9 turbine engine of 1,100 h.p. First production delivery of the model was made this year under a military contract calling for an undisclosed quantity. The Iroquois can be armed with missiles, rockets and machine guns, and UH-1A and UH-1B models have been in action in Viet Nam. A small commercial helicopter, the turbo- supercharged 47G-3B-1, is also appearing. Bell's European licensee, Costruzioni Aero- Bell UH-1D Iroquois
