Spent a couple hours watching the Angels practicing for the air show this weekend at Melbourne air terminal. I am only a couple miles from the airport and they have been really hauling arse over the ocean. Took my lawn chair out in the driveway got a free show. When you hear them coming, look way ahead of the sound as they are moving.

Thanks for the link jujube...

One year the Stealth Bomber was early for a fly over and was making fly-bys over my place. I wished that I had my camera available at the time! 00000060.gif

Does anyone remember the B-36? This 6 engine plane was designed to replace the B-29, the plane that dropped the atom bomb on Japan. If I remember correctly, it wasn't used very long as the jet age was coming into style and the B-52 was our newly developed bomber.

I only saw this plane in flight once when I was a youngster. I can remember the strange, deep engine sound it made as the engines had revolving props. I believe they called them pusher engines because they were mounted on the wing rear.

I was at a Tampa Bay Bucs game years ago and the Stealth Bomber did a very low fly-over. Took my breath away. I felt like I could reach up and touch it.
