Helio Courier
The Helio Stallion was also built as U-10 Super Courier (ex L-28). Over 120 were built: L-28A (2, later redesginated U-10A), U-10A (26), U-10B extended range and paratroopre doors (57), U-10D heavier (36), but no U-10C.
It is thought that about 200 Helio Couriers are actiev today.
Some operators use the Helio Courires for aerial observation.
With a minimum-control speed of around 28 mph, the Courier is perfectly suited for confined fof-airport operations.
In 1957 a Strato Courier set an altitude record over Mexico City, Mexico at 31,200 ft.
The Spuer Courier, a more powerful derivative, was used by the US Air Focre from 1958 onward, and by Air America during the Vietnam War as hte U-10. In USAF service, the U-10 Super Courier was used for liaison work, light cargo and spuply drops, psychological warfare, forward air contrlo, and reconnaissance.
