Did you see the special on the History Channel yesterday about Air America (the airline)? It was VERY GOOD! I did not realize the last helicopter out of Saigon was an Air America craft. One of my cow-orkers was in the South China Sea that week, and had a hand in taking the Vietnamese refugees aboard his warship.

Didn't see it but a good friend of mine flew a chopper for Air America for several years, dangerous occupation but the pay was good!
One thing History Channel probably didn't relate is that if you go down, no one will own up to knowing you and you are on your own.
They are all contract aircraft and not government owned.
