EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018: Federal Government and Enstrom Helicopter Exhibits

By Fred Harl

The Aero Experience continues our rotorcraft theme with a look at two exhibits at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2018: Enstrom Helicopter Corporation and the Federal Government - U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Customs and Border Protection. 

Enstrom Helicopter Corporation produces light piston and turbine-powered helicopters for private, law enforcement and military utility applications. Enstrom has been producing helicopters since the early 1960s, and the current piston F-28F and turbine 480B are featured here.

The U.S. federal government features several aircraft on exhibit each year. Here we feature a DeHavilland Beaver of the U.S. Forest Service, a Quest Kodiak 100 of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and a UH-60A Blackhawk of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
