I remember the end of the war in Nam when the choppers were pushed over the sides of carriers.

They needed the room to land more ... and they certainly weren’t going back to be captured. most were single engine Hueys ... already outdated and with lots of hours on the meter.

I had several responses to the Nam and choppers pushed off the carriers saying it was due to lack of space, that was my first thought also, so you are all right. Thanks, I kind of wondered.
