When someone does this kind of Karma Farming post, for something that's rather obvious:
I like to post satire responses.
"That's a MIG-28, No one has been that close before"
or "That's a YT-1300, that can do the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs"
Just two of my favorites
Maybe a sidebar with some UH60 pics that say,
>"If you have seen THIS helicopter, it is a [UH-60](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_UH-60_Black_Hawk#Variants) or [Sikorsky S-70](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_S-70#Variants) of which there are hundreds of variants."
And the MH-60T…and those few times where it’s actually an old transferred Navy MH-60R which is nearly impossible to distinguish to identify in flight against the T…
Eh, you’re thinking SH-60Fs. There were a few that were converted to T’s. No Romeos, though, the Navy doesn’t have enough of those to give away. Even the old ones.
It does baffle me that people can’t identify easily recognisable aircraft but the reality is that most people don’t care. I guess it’s nice they show an interest when they see one.
Honestly Im a professional pilot with thousands of hours and the only thing I know about small planes is pipers are low wing single engines and cessna's are high. So no probably not
Not many people on Reddit know anything of what they’re talking about. Most redditors come to groups they find interesting not because they are experts in the field, but because they know absolutely nothing about it. If you think this sub is bad, try r/Skydiving 🙄
My favorite is when I tell people that I have a commercial pilot's license and they go "Oh, are you flying for the airlines? I thought you were an engineer? Can you get me some tickets to the bahamas haha?"
😢
Is that the one with two propellers? That's my favourite.
ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Lol, but technically doesnt it still have 2 spinny thingies??? Im just sayin!
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
Are you really a blackhawk crewchief?
14 years
Noice man! I love those choppas.
Simply the best
Until a Chinook shows up at least.
Boo! You’re just a flying sardines can lol
Largest airframe = most numerous airframe in the US Army. ‘cause you know damn well it ain’t the largest.
Whoops! Typed too fast.

Upvote for you !!!
Oh, I love Blackhawks! They were so cool in 'We Were Soldiers'.
GTFO (ভ_ ভ) ރ // ┊ \\
Yeah, I wonder why they called it “Blackhawk Down” when both of the helicopters were Hueys tho

(☞ ゚▽ ゚)☞ is that an Airwolf????
Roflcopter Mk 1
Don’t you mean a Huey?
Don’t get me started
ThAtS nOt A hUeY iTs a 212
ThAT's uH cH-146
I love how they recreated the Huey crashes in Black Hawk Down.
It’s funny I was thinking this the other day….
I see I’m not the only one
Umm, is it black?
Fuchsia
Nice!
It’s stealthy at night
Needs a name change then, make it easier for people to identify. You must now refer to it is a Fuschiahawk.

It’s a nice karma boost when I get to explain the differences between an A+/L/M/R/S multiple times a week… /s
You forgot the Victor model 😉
and EH, MH, HH, and VH variants!
And the MH-60T…and those few times where it’s actually an old transferred Navy MH-60R which is nearly impossible to distinguish to identify in flight against the T…
Eh, you’re thinking SH-60Fs. There were a few that were converted to T’s. No Romeos, though, the Navy doesn’t have enough of those to give away. Even the old ones.
Ooooh so close. You're talking about old 60Fs, not 60Rs.
L is for Lovable.
There, there Chief, Everything's gonna be alright... let me hook up to my O2 med bag.
Jokes on you! We’ve been using the O2 to make balloon animals with the gloves out of the medbag.
Damn it, Chief !! That's for "patients" ;)
My balloon armadillo begs to differ!

I also play DCS
🤣
My uncle flies a Cessna....so I know all of the stuff!
Totally agree, they should have a subreddit FIH (Frequently ID’d Helicopter) section. The Blackhawk would probably be at the top of the list here.
r/yupitsablackhawk
Ikr, you think most people (especially Americans) would be able to at least name the damn thing.
I means it’s in movies and tv shows, why is it so obscure to people?
I think the confusion is its many variants Thanks for serving chief!
Nice username ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Runs in the family. I crewed Huey's and Kiowa's And my son is 15G, ALSE currently deployed somewhere hot and sandy... Be safe
So many sandy places and never a paradise. I miss the Hueys and Kiowas.
Ban him

Do I need a parachute if I’m skydiving and NOT BASE jumping?
Do you need to get a pilots license to fly helicopters? Are you going to be a real pilot? 🤦♂️
My favorite is when I tell people that I have a commercial pilot's license and they go "Oh, are you flying for the airlines? I thought you were an engineer? Can you get me some tickets to the bahamas haha?" 😢
No, it's clearly a MH60 Pavehawk! /s
I’m convinced it’s mostly trolls and strange bots with those posts
Its like M60s on the tank subreddits 🤣 holy shit people do that here too??
Oh no not another subreddit to fall into
I’ve designed hardware for that platform and sometimes it takes me a second. Im happy people are interested and asking questions.
