Topic of the Week #27 Army Aviation

Post by Blackbird »

I'm hoping this hasn't been covered before. The usual five shots of any fixed-wing or rotary aircraft that has served or is serving with/belonging to that nation's Army.

My apologies for the delay in announcing the winner - blame it on RIAT!

As ever, a superb selection of photos from everyone, but the one that really caught my eye is Tony's Mohawk at IAT 87. Thanks to everyone who took part - over to you Tony.
