Ozark, Alabama 20th May 2013: One of the motto's in which the 94th AeroClaims-Aviation Consultant Group (94th ACG) is known for to many of their colleagues and friends back in Miami, Florida is the phrase "Outside of the 305" meaning their ability to reach and service many clients on a global scale.
With that said the motto still lives on as the (94th ACG) deployed to Ozark, Alabama one Spring week in May to "dabble" in Bell UH-1 Huey's for a certain client.
Upon arrival the (94th ACG) team was greeted by May Spring showers. Despite the local weather the (94th ACG) was exposed and took advantage of new found hands on knowledge concerning the Bell UH-1 Huey. Rotary (i.e. Helicopters) Aviation has been a strong asset of the (94th ACG) as in the past since being stood up for operations back in 2003 the group has dealt with Bell's 212 / 412's, Robinson R-44's, Enstroms and Hindustan Aerospace Ltd. from India concerning the indigenous manufactured "Dhurv" multi-purpose helicopters. It was this forte and experience with helicopters that the (94th ACG) was tapped and called upon by a certain client to oversee final delivery and acceptance items on a certain Bell UH-1 Huey.
