I don't know about Cobra's kit, but Eduard's are great as usual and it's the best chioce if you want lots of detail. Using photoetched kits needs a little practise though.
In case you want a crew for your helo, you might have some problems finding one. The only one availabe for the moment is one from CMK, but they are kind of crappy (I have them so I know what I'm talking about).
I hope to hear soon from Night Flight Models, they have some very promising crew kits in hold.

Arty is right about the seats. I decided not to even put mine in to make room for more figures. The cobra resin kits are great also. The only problem I had with mine is that the mini gun handles were broken when it arrived but I believe they replace broken parts for free.

Academy UH-60 is a great model. The seats in the rear are a little rticky, but not too bad. Eduard aslo make a couple of PE detail sets that are available and Cobra Company makes a resin detail set too. It is a great kit, I love mine.

I'VE BEEN A UH-60A CREW CHIEF FOR 4 YEARS NOW, AND I'M THINKING ABOUT MAKING A 1/35 SCALE MODEL UH-60 WITH AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE. I WAS LOOKING AT THE MODEL FROM ACADEMY AND WONDERING IF THAT WOULD BE THE BEST? I HAVEN'T BUILT A MODEL IN ABOUT 10 YRS. WOULD THIS ONE BE TOO HARD?
