Slick
Rotary Wing Pilot Slick is the pilot of the HORNET utility helicopter, a custom designed to fill out the ranks of the 1982 Joes, given them some much-needed equipment. Since he would have been released before the second series of figures in 1983, he's made only from parts that were already available. His filecard information is below. I took the file name from the Dragonfly sticker, which in turn was based on the designer of the Dragonfly as I understand it. File Name: Culbert, William C. Service Branch: Army Rank (Grade): WO1 (W-1) Primary MOS: Rotary Wing Aviator Secondary MOS: Aviation Maintenance Technician Birthplace: Hopkinsville, KY As a teenager, Slick was a daredevil pilot of radio-controlled helicopters, buzzing other enthusiasts and generally making a nuisance of himself. He joined the Army specifically to fly choppers, and was one of the original members of the 160th Aviation Battalion, sometimes known as the “Night Stalkers”, a unit which specializes in low-altitude, high-speed night flying, an invaluable skill for a special operations unit. So when the G.I. Joe team came calling, Slick was ready to go. Graduated: Aviation School, Ordnance Mechanical Maintenance School, Warrant Officer Basic Coutse (Aviation), Green Platoon Course. Qualified Expert: M1911A1 pistol, M16 rifle. Qualified Pilot: MH-6 Little Bird, UH-1 Iroquois (“Huey”), CH-47 Chinook, XH-6 HORNET. “I know a lot of guys like to grab some quick chow in the air, on the way to a mission. But with Slick at the stick you're not going to be eating – you'll be flying nap-of-the-earth (NOE) at a speed you seriously question the wisdom of. Slick gets you where you need to be when you need to be there, just with knuckles a little whiter than usual.” Head – Flash Arms – Grunt (reproduction) Torso – Cobra Trooper v2 Waist, legs – Clutch v2 Helmet – Breaker Headset – Breaker (accessory pack version, modified) |
