i believe that's an ah-1 cobra, not an ah-64 apache.

You're right.  I think the paint scheme threw me.  Either way..badazz!!   

BTW..the Taco Bell near my jobsite in Mesa is all about the Apache.  Yeah, I was eating there..before I heard about the whole meat thing this week.     Anyway, it has a bunch of cool pics of them in action.  I had forgotten they build them about 2 miles away from work.  Saw a dozen of them flying single file out to the desert this morning.

My first thought was "Holy Mother of ... That's a whole lot of people paying $2 for an itty-bitty can of water, sugar, caffeine, & taurine..."

Way cool collection.   

Not every American is unaware of the difference between Austria and Australia.

I not only know the difference, I also know the deutsch name for Austria. Osterreich

^^We can probably find about 100 more down here at Davis-Monthan and bring em back to life. 


Is that a Redbull Apache too BTW??

Derby is correct.  It's an TAH-1F.  Single engine, two rotor blades, skids...  The thing that really looks like an apache is the cockpit.  Newer cobras have a bubble, apaches still have flat glass.

That particular Cobra was actually destroyed in a crash, then chopped in half, and stricken from the record.  Then, someone picked up the "scrap metal" and rebuilt it.

I checked your spelling, just to see if perhaps I could be pompous too.

(Also, you forgot your umlaut. )

The biggest question I have. Is it open to the public??
Between the Porsche museum in Stuttgart, BMW museum / Deutscher Museum in München, and this collection in Salzburg we're talking a motorheads heaven. Stuttgart to Salzburg can't be more than 6 hours apart if you keep it wound out in the unrestricted zones on the autobahn.
