Reuss X House of Representatives Dear Mr. Reuss: In response to your May 2, 1973, request we have inquired into the cost of retainin& sgrplus military> he~i- coaLs and the amount that could be realized if the heli- copters were sold. As indicated in the information the Army furnished you, most surplus helicopters are at the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Tucson, Arizona, and are under the auspices of the I Military AirrafoL St rage~ ndi Disposition Center (MASDC). MASDC has responsibility for providing a single-point opera- 2tion for the Department of Defense (DOD) in the processing -'and maintaining of military aircraft in extended storage; preparing such aircraft for withdrawal from storage for one- time flight or surface shipment; reclaiming these aircraft for supply purposes; and processing excess and surplus air- craft for disposal. As of July 31, 1973, 1,980 helicopters were on hand at MASDC. This is 545 more helicopters than the inventory the Army furnished you, because the Army figures were as of Janu- ary 31, 1973, and because our figures included all types of helicopters whereas the Army figures included only those suitable for rescue and police type work. As of July 31, 1973, the inventory for these types of helicopters was as follows. Type Quantity H-13 421 H-23 363 H-34 307 H-43 70 TH-55 484 00^4
