Let's kick-off with a cover shot -
a fine US mag with a good article on the last B29 raid. |
An old mag cover showing a Grumman
Tracker
|
A Martin Baker ad from the 60s, ironic
use of Vulcan since only 2 of the crew got MB seats! |
The place to see a live Vulcan doing
ground runs - Bruntingthorpe |
The first true dedicated gunship helo
- the Cobra |
|
|
|
|
|
I like other Avro bombers too - this
mag has both! |

Used to subscribe to AvNews - nice cover

It's about time we included pix of the
F20 Tigershark - I saw the display at Farnborough in 83, awesome...
what a shame all around.. |
How could we resist such performance?
Political assassination methinks. |
The sting of the F20 - Sparrows and Sidewinders
(+ cannon). At Farnboro the wingtips carried smoke gennerators, will
try to find the pix and put them up. There's not much on the web on
the F20, shame. |
Back to the heydays, a Lightning awaits
IFR from a Victor
