Thread: Aircraft pics you've taken

3N0.jpg3N0A4.jpg668.jpg

there was a few land rovers in the car park at Avalon airshow 2023, should be some good pics from others

Was not impressed with the camp chair leg shaped and sized dent in the back corner of the Range Rover I found the next day......

I didn't get any pics this year at the Airshow as it's the first time in 15 years I haven't been working there. I did attend one of the trade days from an invite I got and overall I was a little disapointed with the hardware on display - not nearly as many big things down at the keyhole as other years - Particularly missed the C-17 not being there to walk through.

I didn't know this thread even existed - I can post a tonne of good pics from 2019.

I'll start with the oddest of them all - The B-52 - it's a freak of engineering and close up is amazing - leaks fluids like an old Land Rover - once parked up they put a heap of drip trays under it - fail on a roadworthy for sure... Chatting to the crew they say the airframes will make 100 years old by the time they are retired.

If one is ever in Darwin one can have a close look at a B52 in the aircraft museum there.
