A check test was conducted to determine whether engineering features incorporated in the CH-1C (modified YH-41) Helicopter offer significant advantages which should be considered for incorporation in future Army helicopters. The CH-1C Helicopter, a commercial version of the modified YH-41, was flown by personnel of the US Army Aviation Board, US Army Aviation School, and US Army Transportation Aircraft Test and Support Activity in the vicinity of Fort Rucker, Alabama. The aircraft was flown for 57 hours during a three-week period. During the test period, emphasis was placed upon flight and performance characteristics, manufacturer's corrections of the deficiencies noted in this Board's report of service test of the YH-41 Helicopter (Project Nr AVN 3057), and the arrangement of the instruments. Maintenance was performed by the manufacturer.
