NOTES
* The true identity of any civil registered HRS owned by Orlando Helicopters, Inc. or Aircraft Specialties/Globe Air is uncertain. Both companies modified and zero-timed S-55 variants for various 
  civilian uses and actual identities may have been switched with other airfames. A good example of this is BuNo130177. The actual fuselage of this HRS, positively identified by S-55 researcher 
  and historian Sid Nanson, was seen around 1988 sitting on a trailor in Alabama while an S-55 with serial number 130177 was being flown in the U.S. registered as N92AS.
