VN164 – Maintenance Crew Chief Keeping helicopters operational in Vietnam required enormous effort from the men working behind the scenes. Aircraft were exposed to heat, humidity, dust, heavy operational use and sometimes battle damage, placing constant demands on maintenance personnel. VN164 – Maintenance Crew Chief represents one of the experienced ground crew responsible for overseeing this essential work. Placed beside a Huey with mechanics, tools and equipment nearby, the figure can become the centre of a busy maintenance scene at an airbase or forward operating location. It is an excellent reminder that every helicopter mission depended upon many hours of work on the ground. For collectors building a Vietnam aviation display, VN164 from The Military Workshop adds an important King & Country figure representing the crews who helped keep the helicopters flying. Show more
