OH MY ; It's taken the better part of two day's for it to finally sink in to my thick skull .The Air Sensor Data Probes that are mounted on the rear of the engine's are on the D Models . As you and the other's have repeatedly explained Charlie !!!. On the A version it's on the mast .

SORRY guy's , it must be terribly frustrating . Sign - With Stupid [#wstupid] ; I get it now.

Hopfully my next post will be of a couple of finished 1/72 AH-64 Apache's , not stupid questions.

John,

  Not stupid questions, man.  This stuff is confusing unless you flew the dang things for a living. Trust me, I'm STILL trying to figure all the friggin Huey variants out!  Model on!!

No problem John, I have worn that same t-shirt many times. But like what Ray said, that is one of the many reasons the forum exists...to help each other. There are no stupid questions and I have learned much from all of you. Most of you non-aviators know much more than I in many cases about the helicopters I flew, because to me it was a job, not a love. Together we all complement each other.

Hey all,

John, sorry I missed your question, I've been away at my wife's Grandmother's for the past two days.  In any case, not impolite at all.  I'm a 1LT right now.  Hoping to make Captain this summer.  I'm not a full time Apache pilot, I'm National Guard, so I run the National Guard Memorial Museum in Washington as my Civilian job and fly AH-64A's in Pennsylvania part time.  Things have gotten rather difficult lately though, so I will be switching airframes so I can fly a bit closer to home.  

Jon

Again, look at the dates on the original post. I bet his issues went away almost 7 years ago.

Is there really a need to keep digging up long-dead, outdated posts? I don't get it.

Right, so is every other post ever put here.  That doesn't make them still relevant though.  If you have something to add, it is usually better to start a new post so people don't just look at the date and dismiss it as old data.
