Not something you see very often. Hopefully at least. (planned shut down on test flight a few weeks ago)

Antartica is the only pin I have left to put on a map. I volunteered to spend a winter down on the ice with them, but it didn't work out. One day I will make it there.

When I was in high school JROTC, we paid a visit to the Army Aviation unit at Buckley. They asked if there were any questions, I asked if we could get a flight. To my surprise, they said yes and we came back another day and got to ride UH-1s around Buckley, both nap of earth (incredibly cool) as well as some higher altitude flight.
