Behind the wall

Manila, Philippines

Taxing northbound and shortly before turning towards runway 24 you'll see these choppers behind a wall.

this should not be titled behind the walls. actually its inside the paf's 205th THW premises, so its not behind the walls.hindi yan dinisplay dyan, dyan tlaga nkapwesto ang mga choppers nila. those huey are operational, yan ang ginagamit ng paf together with the army against threats to our democracy and to keep filipino people safe.

ok parin ang huey sa pilipinas kasi wala naman silang kakayanin sa mga air battle ng paf...

ya..thats true mr. denand im agree with you...
denand 06-Aug-2009 23:36
i guess d naman nkakahiya to still have the huey as our transport chopper it's good sana king mayron tayong black hawk,since AFP is facing two different guerilla war wala talaga pondo for new planes, the best thing to do is invest in R&D to built our own planes, during the time of marcos AFP had built 2 jet fighter code name kali (ilocano word for eagle) but i guess na drop ang funding during aquino time,sayang nga. back to huey
these choppers were proven in vietnam war where the vietcong has big guns & anti aircraft missles to shot it down while dyan sa pinas those rebels dont have those big guns so very effective parin as far as transporting troops is concern

to mr. adrian.. ano ibig mo sabihin overcrowded yung huey at hercules? alam mo ba kung ilan yung hercules natin dito operational? Isa in english one!! ok? bulok na yung PAF walang silbi!! gamtin nyo naman sana yung pondo ng bayan para makabili mam lang ng bagong helicopter as what lem said... sa government please naman inteyendihin nyo naman ang word na awa!! mawa kayo sa mga piloto natin!!! Adios sana masakop na tayo ng vietnam..
Lem 05-Aug-2009 07:22
Well siguro it's for me to suggest.. beacuse it's been ten (10) years since then I always to find out on how PAF improve their capabilities with equipment and their just doing nothing at all... nakakhiya sa iang bansa na yung mga kagamitan natin eh obsolete na.. mahiya kayo and I know im sure that we have a fund on this to buy a an equipment for upgrade..nakakahiya tayo... bimuli naman kayo kahit 5 helicopter lang pwede ba yun? hay naku wala na talaga ang pilipinas pwede na tayong duraan ng kalapit bansa natin..

Those are working Hueys. That's where their parking area....so that's where they park of course. Hindi sila nakatago. = )
Guest 06-Jul-2009 12:39
yang mga huey choppers na yan ang nagbabantay sa manila kasama ng mga MG520 attact helicopters hindi naman kailangan i display pa sa bayan
Guest 14-Feb-2009 07:20
Those UH-1H are operated by 205th THW just behind the building of the PAF's 505th SAR where me and my friends visited.

Thanks for the info Adrian. Never knew why those choppers were behind a wall.
adrian bernardo 30-May-2008 03:25
Those UH-1H were still operational, the place was an extention of the parking ramp of Villamor Air Base, because it's overcrowded with hueys & hercules
