I have an old friend who flew them with the Air Force in Viet Nam and Thailand.  There call sign was PEDRO,  They used them for search and rescue and runway fire suppression.  He says it was a good helicopter.  When they got N model Hueys (212) he didn't think it was quite as good as he thought. Before the Kmax, operators  here in the Northwest used them for logging and had a number of crashes and killed some people more to helicopter abuse than fault of the machine IMHO.
