Close up of the equipment installed for testflight. Red wiring and a scope outside the cockpit for calibrating the main rotor blades. For some reason you rarely see pictures of it. Full serial presentation 98-0121 a.k.a. Q-21 is clearly visible.
Some car drivers use the blinding foil but ofcourse garbage sacks can also be used for the same kind of purpose. Even when your navigating in a multi-million dollar combat helicopter.
In the early morning sunlight photography at the Langebergseweg can be fantastic when choppers turn inbound via the closeby 'Lima' taxitrack. Personally this is one of my best AH-64D photos as far as clarity is concerned.
