Tom sez':

"As for the distinguishing features between a B and C model Huey.
1. pitot on B is on nose and on C is on roof right above the post between the two front windows.
2. Vertical fin on B is smaller than the C model.
3. Main Rotor blades on B are only about 15" wide and on C model are about 30" wide.
Rotor head on the C is flatter looking and much larger than rotor head on B model.
Other than those glaring features, not much differences that would be visually noticable.

Check my web site at: www.118ahc.org for actual photos of both models. B models will be prior to '66 and C model after '66."

Cool. I'll be sure to copy and save those. So I guess the intake cowl isn't a determining factor which I kinda figured.

Nice pics on the site. Will add it to my favorites.

Eventually I'd like to remake my "C" model and also do a Cobra "G" model. And of course I already started on the "6" awhile back but haven't been able to do much to it. It will pretty much be a completely new build that will now be V.3 Wink

Furthermore...

"the B models had twin FM homing antennas on the nose as well as the
pitot tube. The C models didn't have the FM homing antennas."
