All the way from England is repeat customer Phil Connolly of MSS Holdings taking delivery and accepting the keys of his newly restored Hughes OH-6A “Loach” from company President, Brian Reynolds. Joining Phil in Olympia to accept the ship was former U.S. Army pilot Ron Paye, an AH-1 Cobra pilot for the 129th AHC Ron was given a chance to fly this Loach and go “back in time” for a few minutes. This helicopter joins Mr. Connolly’s restored UH-1H Huey that he acquired from us three years ago. Plans are to take these ships to shows all over England. Phil has gained the honor and respect of Vietnam Veterans all over the world for preserving and showing their history. This OH-6A is a very historical combat veteran that was shot down twice is Southeast Asia and still contains battle damage bullet hole repairs. This bird is repainted in marking from the 7th of the 17th Cav and is complete with replica M-134 mini-gun and M-60 machine gun for the rear seat gunner! As you can see by the pictures this Loach is now a “Stunning Show Stopper”. We have now restored and sold nearly a dozen military helicopters to collectors around the world. Please let us know if we can assist you with a restored helicopter. Contact us at
