  1. A great military institution made up of aviation professionals who have been able to honor its name. I will not be able to forget my collaboration as Helipet with MI17 in the Cenepa conflict in the 45 days that I was flying to the conflict zone, several times escorted by TH57. We didn't have any relief and we got ahead. Greetings and much respect. Good report Nicholas.

  2. The history of our country and its aviation is incredible. I hope they will continue for many more years with these beautiful airplanes to continue enjoying them.. very good post keep it up
