#29 Home sweet home!

#24 Redefines the "pucker factor"

AWESOME THREAD!!!

But, I think the one pic with the plane crashing/breaking up should be removed.

#26: scene from PBS series "Piece of Cake" (off of Dereck Robinson's novel). RC, not full scale? I'm thinking so….

#50: piece of cake!

#26: *is* the senior Hannah flying under the bridge. –full scale, not RC. Amazing.

#46 is a screen shot from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvDDDKnNhuE (comes with a free language warning!)

I knew a waiste gunner on a -24 that flew on one of the early Ploesti raids that told me they had leaves and such blowing through the fuselage on the run in. That's some flying there!! Amazing.

#29 – damn that's low.

#57 – holly valance (aussie model/actress/singer) for anyone wondering.

#35 DaHavilland Mosquito. 2 Rolls-Royce Merlins and made out of plywood! Crazy fast and nimble as hell!

#58 #69 insane

#37 clipped the runway, that's the puff behind the plane. When they landed they realized they'd ruptured the hull and had to beach the plane before it sank.

#67 is the a U.S. B-57 Canberra medium bomber. The tower in the lower right corner is likely the Control tower at what was then the Hutchinson Naval Air Station, located in Yoder Kansas. In the last years of the fifties or early 1960 these airplanes were assigned to the Kansas Air National Guard. My father was one of the original members of this unit and travelled around the world on variousilitary missions with these airplanes. Some notable missions included the Atomic Bomb tersting program on Christmas Island in1961. Phenomenal aircratf taken from a British design by Martin Aircraft. Neat to see "new" photos of them.

"Tower on the LEFT side…" my bad.

# 23 is Harvard taking the low road around Lion Rock, Piha Beach, New Zealand. They don't do that anymore!
