Korean KUH-1 Surian Helicopter Cold Weather Trials

It is pretty unusual to see a Korean test team climb off a Russian transport to perform flight test of a military aircraft at a U.S test facility.  A short blurb part way down this link tells a bit about what was accomplished.  Cranking up after cold soaking at -42 is no small accomplishment.  Lots of pictures.
