An 40-episode Fanfic adaptation of ''Series/ChoujinSentaiJetman''. An Air Force soldier and four apartment tenants from Spring Valley, CA receive military hardware from ''Project: Jetman'' and become the Franchise/PowerRangers, to fight against a vengeful space vampire and others who seek Earth's destruction.
!!The Rangers:
* Luke Branson; ('''[[color:red:Red One]]'''): TheLeader, an ex-Air Force pilot with partial amnesia and a tendency to run off without telling the others. Starts working at a museum, and eventually begins a relationship with Lisa.
* Chris Jacobs ('''[[color:black:Black Two]]'''): TheLancer, initially somewhat of a SourSupporter. Works at a bike repair shop, [[spoiler: later starts dating Casey]].
* Pete Williams ('''[[color:gold:Yellow Three]]'''): TheBigGuy, a chef at an Italian restaurant. [[DoesNotLikeSpam Detests packaged foods]], long-time friend of Chris.
* Estelle "Casey" Williams ('''[[color:pink:Pink Four]]'''): TheChick, [[FriendToAllLivingThings love animals]]. [[spoiler" Eventually starts dating Chris after nursing a crush on him for a while.]]
* Margaret "Maggie" Jing-Lu ('''[[color:cyan:Blue Five]]'''): TheSmartGuy, Chinese-American college student (intending to major in psychology). But due to her Ranger activities interfering with her classes, she steps down and passes her slot to...
* Lisa Ward: [[ThePickpocket Previously a shoplifter]], after running into Luke [[HeelFaceTurn she turns over a new leaf]] and eventually starts working with the Rangers; she takes over as Blue Five when Maggie steps down, and remains in that role until the end of the series.
!! Their allies:
* Dr. Vanessa Bering: Creator of the Ranger technology [[spoiler:with the aid of Zordon]], she's captured and put into [[HumanPopsicle a cryogenic freeze]] in Trask's raid on the space station, and is kept around by Dillik as a sort of imaginary friend who he addresses as "frozen scientist". Eventually is released, and joins the Rangers as their technical advisor; [[SixthRanger she ends up having to sub as a Ranger briefly in the finale.
* Special Agent Turnquist: Agent of the government and liason between the Rangers and ''Project: Phoenix'' (the successor to ''Project: Jetman''). Tends to keep secrets or [[BearerOfBadNews bring bad news at inopportune times]].
* General Taggart: [[TheBrigadier Head of both Projects]], and who [[SpannerInTheWorks tends to interfere in the Rangers' duties]], but is ultimately a ReasonableAuthorityFigure.
* Steve and Lenore Patterson: Neighbors of the Rangers in their apartment building, they end up [[BadassBystander sucked into the action once]].
* Barry West: Another neighbor, interested in Casey for a while. Kept a pet squirrel, owned a VCR repair shop, and was somewhat of a ConspiracyTheorist regarding the alien attacks on Spring Valley.
* Ancient Red Ranger: The ghost of a long-dead Ranger who assists the team late in the series.
!! Their enemies:
* Trask: A space vampire with a grudge against humanity, and the BigBad for different parts of the series. Uses a gun to [[HumanResources convert living being into biomass]], for both his own sustenance and for creating Nobodies and monsters.
* Dillik: An exobiology student who serves as a somewhat-unwilling EvilGenius; for a while, he serves as the NobleTopEnforcer via a telepresence robot dubbed Strife. [[spoiler: [[HeelFaceTurn Eventually realizes he's on the wrong side and joins the Rangers]].]]
* Queen-Empress Magda: An immortal. Formerly queen of a [[TheEmpire galaxy-spanning empire]], only to be deposed, comes to Earth to stop the Rangers (having defeated similar forces on her home planet of Illam). Gets sent to an alternate dimension, but takes over that dimension's Earth [[spoiler: and after the Rangers battle her again, gets sent to the home dimension of [[MakeMyMonsterGrow the]] [[MonsterOfTheWeek Jinnsects]] and [[BolivianArmyEnding left with a sword that can kill immortals.]]
* Princess Sasha: Daughter of Magda, and after her defeat unwilling allies of Trask and Dillik. Uses the Star Handle, a [[LightIsNotGood light-based weapon]] [[SwissArmyWeapon with multiple modes.]] [[OneWingedAngel Can assume a giant monster form]], only to be defeated by the Rangers on Illam. She develops an attraction to Strife before she finds out he's Dillik, but eventually gets melted into biomass by Trask. [[CloningBlues Dillik attempts to clone her]], but it [[CameBackWrong doesn't turn out so well]].
* Mainframe: TheDragon in the later episodes, made from a leftover Jinnsect and a console from the space station. Has the power of technopathy and created the method to turn biomass into monsters. [[spoiler: [[DragonAscendant Eventually becomes the]] BigBad after everyone else is either destroyed, captured or defected, and after using a Warzord of his own, hijacks the Rangers' Zords; he's destroyed when the Rangers remotely self-destruct their Zords, only to [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever come back giant-sized]] and attempt to lay waste to Spring Valley.]]

** AMechByAnyOtherName: The Sky Flyers.
** AnimalMecha: The Flyers are borderline examples, since they're really just jets with cockpits shaped like the respective birds each one is based on. The Kestrel has more bird-like attributes, including talons for hands.
** CombiningMecha: Sky Hawk + Condor + Owl + Swallow + Swan = Skyforce Megazord (robot mode) or Skyforce Cruiser (jet mode).
** TransformingMecha: The alien Kestrelzord, which transforms into the Kestrel Warrior Mode.
** RobotBuddy: The Blue Battlezord, a sentient support robot that could transform into the [[{{BFG}} Quad Cannon]], which could be used by either the Skyforce Megazord or the Kestrelzord.
** MechaExpansionPack: The Kestrel could combine with the Skyforce in either of its two forms.
*** Skyforce Megazord + Kestrel Warrior Mode = Mega Kestrelzord
*** Skyforce Cruiser + Kestrelzord = Kestrel Megacruiser
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: Almost entirely averted: the Rangers rarely pose, and when they do, it's fairly short.
* LawOfChromaticSuperiority: Averted: no one member gets any exclusive weapon or powerup, and unlike the ''Sentai'' counterpart, the Phoenix Rover/Cannon isn't the Red Ranger's personal vehicle.
* MagicalSecurityCamera: Justified; the Rangers each have their own small camera drones called ''Hoverbirds'', which automatically seek trouble and display it in the Rangers' [[TransformationTrinket [=AviMorphers=]]] and helmet displays. Unfortunately, Dillik and Trask still have access to the camera feeds from the space station, which, among other problems, [[spoiler: [[RealityEnsues leads to the Rangers' apartment building being turned into a monster and getting destroyed by the Megazord]]]]. Dr. Bering fixes this issues by changing the Hoverbirds' frequencies.
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: The Jinnsect fulfills this role until about midway through; if it can latch off the monster as it's destroyed, it can bring it back giant size. It can be destroyed, thus keeping the monster from coming back. This comes in handy when the Skyforce Megazord stops working for a while; when the monster gets destroyed in small-scale, the Rangers shoot the Jinnsect with their Sky Blasters or Enforcers. When the Jinnsects are used up and the monsters are instead made of biomass, they instead grow simply when destroyed, although the demons Trask found were exceptions to this (Infernis arrived giant-sized, Gog never grew; Zin and Drek grew on their own volition, as did their combined form Zindrek).
* MiniDressOfPower: Worn by the female rangers.
* [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monsters Of The Week]]: Initially powered by the infestation of an object by an other-dimensional bug creature known as a ''Jinnsect''; when the Jinnsects were used up, they switched to making monsters from biomass instead.
* {{Mook}}s: The Nobodies, as used by Trask and Dillik; Magda used Discards instead.
** EliteMooks: Somebodies, via a DeadlyUpgrade.
* PsychoRangers: The Shadow Ranger team in episode 27. The only one who didn't get his own EvilCounterpart was Chris, who was absent during the time the clones were made.
* RegularCaller: [[RealityEnsues Nearly exposes the Rangers a couple of times]], as the [=AviMorphers=] [[ObviousBeta didn't have either a functioning talk button or Ranger-specific talk filtering]]; Dr. Bering corrected these issues when she was released from her cryogenic suspension.
* SupervillainLair: The ''Project: Jetman'' space station, initially; after the Rangers' raid in episode 32, Trask and Mainframe move into Magda's BiggerOnTheInside lair, located in Siberia.
* TransformationTrinket: Perhaps one of the simplest- the [=AviMorpher=], a digital watch which, in addition to morphing, can also control the Rangers' Hoverbirds.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Pink and Blue instead of the traditional Pink and Yellow (although Casey's suit mainly has white spandex; as a result, [[LampshadeHanging people keep calling her the White Ranger, much to her irritation]]).
* WeaponOfChoice: Their list of stuff includes:
** SwordAndGun: The Talon Swords and Sky Blasters.
** PowerFist: The Battlizers that the Rangers used, which could fire a "Battlizer Beam" and enter a "Striker Mode" for powered punches. They later got a MidSeasonUpgrade where they were now larger, and the back portion was now a remote-controlled drone dubbed a Battle Bird, which could also combine with their Sky Blasters to form Battle Enforcers.
** {{BFG}}: The Phoenix Cannon. The "gravity ball" attacks used by the Sky Enforcers, Echo Enforcers and Battle Enforcers could also count, in a sense.
** [[CoolGuns/{{Handguns}} Cool Gun]]: The [[MidSeasonUpgrade Echo Blasters]].
** BifurcatedWeapon: Multiple variants, all based around the Sky Blaster:
*** Talon Sword + Sky Blaster = [[CoolGuns/{{Handguns}} Sky Enforcer]] (which fires the "gravity ball"/"force bubble" finishing blast)
*** Echo Blaster + Sky Blaster = [[HandCannon Echo Enforcer]]
*** Battle Bird + Sky Blaster = [[HandCannon Battle Enforcer]]
