2009 Joint Services Open House - UH-60 Blackhawk

UH-60 Blackhawk Demonstration

2009 Joint Services Open House
Andrews AFB, Maryland
Sunday May 17, 2009

IN THIS VIDEO, watch as this Army Blackhawk is used to perform a FRIES demonstration - a Fast Rope Insertion and Extraction System demonstration.

Like what you've seen? If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

@agudelo50 Somehow I doubt that you were the pilot on this aircraft. Maybe it's because the fact that the announcer said the pilot's names, maybe it's your spelling and grammar. Or, it could be that you're not a Black Hawk pilot because doing a "360 spin" isn't as hard as it looks. For what it's worth, it's called a pedal turn. I'm sure that you and your 2nd LT stick buddy were taught that term in flight school. Thanks for taking credit for something that you will never do.

Beautful Job and nice show! that was why we all love blackhawk. We are from China, guess what , China still have over 20 units UH-60 in active service in military region of Chengdu Ronald Reagon Admin ever sold us 1980'. Becasue of its excellent altitude performance, China wants more up to 1000 units if possible. Blackhawk played very key role in earthquake rescue activity in 2008.
