Since 2010, DynCorp International’s Supply Operations Air Group (SOAG) has supported personnel and equipment transport in Southern Afghanistan. As part of the program, DI owns, operates and maintains six UH-1H helicopters that move DI team members and cargo between more than 30 Forward Operating Bases (FOBs). After flying a total of more than 7500 accident-free hours, the aircraft return to the U.S. to DI’s facility in Huntsville, Ala. From there, DI team members will perform any necessary maintenance and modifications so each helicopter will be prepared for whatever its next mission may bring.
