Sitting in the seat of a AH-64A resently returned from Iraq it strck me how there craft are showing thier age, and how flying one is not exactly like riding around in luxury. Take a look at the age of the instruments and the amount of dust still in the craft from flyin in Iraq. It even had a strong locker-room type smell to it, just imagine sitting in one of these in the Iraqi heat for hours on end.<br /><br />AH-64A<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47146524-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47146524-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47147199-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47147199-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />A few other shoots from the day.<br /><br />AH-64A Apache<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47157987-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47157987-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />OH-58 Kiowa<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47150252-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47150252-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />C-130<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47146807-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47146807-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />HMMWV<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47155130-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47155130-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Rolls Royce turbine for OH-58 Kiowa<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47151315-M.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/photos/47151315-M.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />See the rest of the photos from the day <a href="http://pics.jamesjweg.com/gallery/1017831">here</a>.<br /><br />James.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15123806-113383589311692367?l=jamesjweg.blogspot.com'/></div>JamesJWeghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09004753297621557020noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15123806.post-1123198258099953852005-08-04T16:29:00.000-07:002005-12-06T03:57:50.466-08:00To me it is the art of showing others the world as you see it. It is the ability to loan your eyes and experiences to others. To share with them the places you have been and things you have seen. It offers us each the ability to learn from what others have found, and to travel without leaving home.<br /><br />James.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15123806-112319825809995385?l=jamesjweg.blogspot.com'/></div>JamesJWeghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09004753297621557020noreply@blogger.com0
