One of these mighty beasts flew overhead this morning on the way from the Airbus factory in Toulouse to their plant near Chester, presumably to collect wings and/or fuselage sections. Cloud cover prevented a visual sighting so I had to make do with a view on Flightradar24.com. |
Yeah, ha, ha, right.
As if that thing could fly. |
Flying Quasimodo...

Nesting on Long Island...

Hellcats, or Wildcats, or Bearcats? I can't remember which is which...
|
Hmmm... the canopy starts before the wing so I think that rules out those cats? Avenger?
|
You may be right. I can't see or remember.

Douglas SBD Dauntless. That's what google says anyway.

Top of the tail ain't right.

Rough calculations indicate that that little lineup of (22 or so) F117's represents about 2 and a half billion bucks.
In the what's-that-running-down-your-leg department: "On their first deployment, with the aid of aerial refueling, pilots flew non-stop from Holloman to Kuwait, a flight of approximately 18.5 hours—a record for single-seat fighters that stands today." Wikipedia |
That was a neat li'l tidbit.
