Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
Took time off work to try and get at least some of the AH6's that were in the country. With the range just down the road, I spent 2 days there. All the airframes were the same on both days.

Brilliant post, saw them at Leeming but too far for a decent pic
Canon 5D Mk4 plus long lenses, and lots of hope!

Fantasic selection of images of an aircraft I never thought we'd see in the UK! Great to see they came so close, was there a bit of posing going on there too? The crew seemed to love the attention
Re: Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
Super excellent selection of shots .Regards Tim
Re: Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
Gid set Danny, good times
Re: Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
Fab set of photos that have captured some of the interesting and unusual sights to be seen on the range. Nothing beats those head on MH-6 shots, though lots to like throughout. Good to meet up again and glad your travels were rewarded.
Cheers

Re: Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
Fab photos, well done!
Two questions on the AH6s:
1. What are the big boxes taking up the back seats?
2. What do they do when it rains???!!!

Re: Jaded Thunder helis on the range. Big post.
There's a big box, and in front of it is either one or two thinner box(s). The thin one(s) are the ammo for the minigun. I think the big one is a fuel tank as there appears to be a nozzle on the starboard side, but I'm only guessing. I believe they brought doors, but the weather was so fine they didn't use them. One thing I did notice is it is very cramped in there, and it does look uncomfortable as they appear to be scrunched up in the front.NorthSouth wrote:Fab photos, well done!
