This F5 is a former South Korean Air Force F5 Tiger.  Eons ago, when I was in the National Guard, I had the experience of watching ROKAF F5s in a practice dogfight against USAF fighters, as the Korean jets attempted to break through an escort in order to take on a FB111.  Quite the thing to see.

Bell 206

 While driving around in the prairie, I saw this helicopter hovering very low to the ground, almost on the ground. It then began to move forward very fast, and flew almost directly overhead. Luckily I was able to get out in time and take a few pictures.

I suspect this is a Bell 206, which is a single engine or twin engine twin rotor multipurpose helicopter. They are made by the Bell Helicopter Textron company is Mirabel, Quebec. For more information, look here.

This was at the Natrona County Airport airshow in 2006. I've got a lot more photos from that airshow, but I wont put them up all at once.
