Hi,

Thank you for accepting me into this forum.

I am an aviation historian based in Dublin, Ireland and presently researching the individual history of all H-21 helicopters constructed. I understand that a H-21 is still visible in Shirley Lake after its crash many years ago. I assume this is an ex USAF machine, possibly out of Elmendorf AFB or Eileson AFB.

Whilst I do have a listing of such incidents that happened in Alaska, I am unable to identify this specific case.

Would anyone know when this incident occurred or have ANY details on this crash, date, etc.? A photo would be ideal!

Several years ago I was lucky enough to visit AK, both Anchorage and Fairbanks and would love to return.

Hope you can assist.

Regards,

Colin
