The Hughes Model 369 (YOH-6A) and 369A (OH-6A) helicopters were only produced for and
delivered to military customers. To meet the basic eligibility requirements for a U.S. standard
and export airworthiness certificate, Hughes Model 369 (YOH-6A) and 369A (OH-6A)
helicopters must have been issued an FAA Form 8130-2 (previously FAA Form 970), “FAA
Conformity Certificate – Military Aircraft”, prior to delivery to the U.S. Army. Civil
conversion of these helicopters requires certain modifications to be made in accordance with
the applicable FAA approved type design data which forms the basis of Type Certificate
H3WE.
