Hey all-
I need a big favor here. Any reference stuff that you may have laying around or have access to that revolves around the MH-6J would be greatly appreciated. I am especially looking for: TMs; blueprints or scale photos (1/16 scale); photos of the cargo bay, engine/transmission, cockpit, closeups of the main and tail rotors, and closeups of the thermal viewer on the nose; and any walkarounds. I understand that this is a very tall order but anything would be appreciated. Thanks.

Joe, I checked ARC but there aren't any walkarounds of the A/MH-6. Thanks for the idea though. I have checked other sites like specwarnet.com and specialoperations.com and those were helpful but no close ups of the main and tail rotors, engine, cargo bay, etc. On some other sites there were some pics of SpecOps warriors on the benches but nothing close up. Keep the responses coming.

PS just realized something. I will check the BHD DVD. Maybe something will turn up there.

MH-6Js are Spec Ops aircraft, therefore not the easiest to get interior detail pictures of. Not impossibe, just not easy. Also notice I said detail. Much of the equipment is labeld sensitive, so pictures, while available, are not advertised. Generally I would look for pictures and information of MD 500s and adapt to your needs.

Thanks for the replies everyone. Jeff, that was a good idea to search for MD 500 pics. The thought never crossed my mind.

It should be noted that, because of the high tech displays, the instrument panel will be different. I'm guessing at least 1-2 MFDs, and a number of other digital displays. However the general layout from an MD 500 to an MH-6 will be relatively the same.
