OH-58 Kiowa Warriors at Yakima Airport

I was fortunate enough to be in the vicinity when a pair of OH-58 Kiowa Warriors began practicing approaches today.  I managed to snag a few photos.  These two have no doubt been operating at the Yakima Firing Center, an off shoot from Fort Lewis.  Enjoy the photos.  The choppers were exceptionally quiet.

    I’d love to hear the sound of the OH-58 Kiowa Warriors, even just from a video. By the way, thanks for sharing these photos.

    Honestly there isn't much sound at all! They are very quiet. The Huey's pop,pop,pop is recognizable, and you can recognize the distinct double rotors of the CH-47 Chinook, but the OH-58 is very quiet.
