Not mine. Just helped working on it and drove it around as an award.

Found a 151 and a M38A1 which I will check out next time.

yes, OH-58s is what we fly for Frost and everything. This one has been now converted to a spray ship.Not a Loach in the background, it is a 520N (NOTAR). Plenty of power. Weird looking however. I like the classical OH-6 look a little better.

Agree 100% on that. Is that a Ford Model-T ? Looks like it. Out of all the Model T variants, always liked the four seater convertible the best.
