Folks, I’ve been remiss for failing to post these pics much sooner than this. Between a busted computer along with life and motorcycle riding I’ve just been caught up in all sorts of stuff I didn’t take the motorcycle on this trip for a few reasons like incredible heat, massive wind, and the fact [...]  Seems the A-10 has been having an IMPACT in Libya. This is my favorite Air Force Airplane. Big Assed Gatling Gun, the GAU-8 Avenger Cannon! Kills……everything…..dead! So wander over to Buck’s Place and have a read! You will enjoy it! http://exileinportales.blogspot.com/2011/03/be-afraid.html And a link to the Wikipedia article on this outstanding example of aerospace engineering! [...] Afternoon randomness from Thursday. A little something for everyone! Saturday. Not much doing here. So Blogging and Linking are the Orders of The Day!!!!!!! Was having a look as is normal. I am a member at this one as I am at F16.net listed somewhere on the right side here. This one is nothing but military aircraft. Fighters, Bombers, Attack, Electronic Warfare, Tankers and Transports. From around the world. I think all can enjoy this one. http://www.airfighters.com/page.php?id=107 Kath, I think you will like these. The old and the new. This one makes me a bit home sick.

That gear says GRUMMAN! Big, strong and heavy duty! http://airpigz.com/blog/2011/2/5/no-fins-no-pilot-no-problems-x-47b-first-flight-with-video.html I found this one at the above site. India is becoming a factor in the aerospace world. Considering the aviation industry was started by Kurt Tank. He designed the FW-190 which was a far better fighter than the Bf-109. Well maybe a tie with the 109G at the end of the war. Link to post [...] Jeff should be seeing these on occasion at LAS. The new Hawaiian A330s are showing up. The best looking Airbus 330s I have seen. These are good looking airplanes. And Hawaiian Air goes to Las Vegas. Keep your eyes peeled, Jeff! Since the Centennial of US Naval Aviation is in May. The Navy has been painting some aircraft in period colour schemes. Here are a few for all to enjoy. And I know that Kath loves pretty airplanes! Prowler and Growler. The Prowler is being replaced in Fleet Service by The Growler. It now takes a [...] |
