A pair of cool photos were uploaded to Aerial Visuals recently and by two different photographers! I thought I would share them with you here. They are both of an OH-6 which is now preserved in Birmingham, Alabama. It is currently located here...

If anyone has any photos of this airframe as it is currently displayed, it would be great to have one uploaded to the airframe dossier...

...that would be fantastic. Here is the upload link...

I love the OH-6. When I was with the Border Patrol I used to get to flying as the observer at times. We had MD-500E's and MD-600N's as well. But the pilots always preferred the OH-6's. They said they were faster, more maneuverable and more fun to fly. The OH-6's were all Vietnam veterans and had patches from bullet holes.
