| ItAA McDD NH-500 Defender THESE PHOTOS HAVE NOT BEEN CROPPED IN ANY WAY. They are proof that you can get too close! Both were taken with a 75-300mm lens at minimum extension (75mm) as the two Italian Army NH500s passed overhead. The KC-10 inspired dust storm was nothing compared to the blast created by these two. The NH500 is a light transport and scouting helicopter built by the only surviving part of the McDonnel Douglas corporation, McDD Helicopters. Photos taken with a 75-300mm lens. |
