The Huey, which first flew in 1956, serves in front-line service in the U.S. military and the militaries of many nations and earned its fame during the Vietnam War and has been featured in many war & action adventure movies. The Huey has several distinctive characteristics, including its rounded nose, its twin-bladed rotor, and the loud "whomp whomp" sound it makes in flight. Bell also built commercial versions of the military Hueys beginning in 1960 and developed upgraded models for military export and civilian use, which are still being produced at Bell Helicopter Canada in 2000.
