Bring History to Life — One Landing at a Time
YL-37 is more than a helicopter—she’s a flying memorial, a piece of living history, and a symbol of honor for those who served during the Vietnam War. Whether you’re planning a school event, veterans’ gathering, air show, or memorial ceremony, YL-37 can bring a powerful presence to your community.
Interested in scheduling a visit, partnering for an event, or simply learning more about her mission? We’d love to hear from you.
📍 Based in Central Iowa, YL-37 is available for events across the Midwest and beyond, depending on scheduling and logistics.
