The Amazing Apache AH1 with it's mega fire power speed and agility. There is know escape.
So at the #Waddington air show this year the Army Air Corps just had to show off the Apache and what a great show it was. With a five minute re-enactment of just one of the scenarios they get into or have to get them self out of

Hesperia woodgatei
Doeskin Ranch Unit, Balcones Canyonlands NWR, Burnet Co., TX
A very rare, local, and poorly-known species. I've been looking for this species around Austin for two years, and finally found two different individuals at Balcones Canyonlands NWR in the past week.
The backdrop of the Superstition Mountains made this shot. I was disappointed at the poor weather conditions at the time, but as I look back now, it made for an interesting shot with the mist on the mountains. They are a bit creepy to begin with, so this just adds to the mystique!
This was just about the last stop on our SW trip before our late evening flight back to Detroit. A great trip it was, and quintessentially American.
Okay, I know that's Dr Phosphorous on the right, and strictly speaking he's not that big, but I thought it was fun, so I ran with it.

The Apache Railway in eastern Arizona has fallen on hard times with the closing of a paper mill, its primarily source of traffic. The railway is home to a small fleet of well-maintained Alco locomotives, which has long been a favorite with train aficionados. Today, however, the railway operates over its 38-mile main line to Holbrook only about once a week. March 1, 2016, was one of those days as Alcos 99 and 81 approach the State Route 377 crossing just outside Holbrook on the return trip to the terminal west of Snowflake. The first four cars are hog feed en route to a feedmill at Mile 16. The rest of the 21-car train are empty gons for the shop for cleaning. Photo by Joe McMillan.
On our last visit to the Upper Derwent Valley we were buzzed by a Chinook. This time a group of about six Apaches overflew seemingly on low-level flight training.
This guy was one of less able (or more sensible?) ones. The others were so low as to be invisible to me!
