  1. United State WAR BIRDS... Honoring The Warriors!

    Ah...the big ole "Thud". It doesn't look like it but it is one HUGE plane when you're standing next to it. I like the picture of the North American F-100 Thunderchief in the back left.

  2. United State WAR BIRDS... Honoring The Warriors!

    I think that's right. But in my mind, it was the predecessor to the A-10 Warthog.....8 50s and ability to also carry rockets/missiles and bombs and could take a punch.

    Beautiful bomber. Pressurized crew cabin. The B-29 production program was actually larger and cost more than Project Manhattan. Bell made B-29s at AF Plant 6 in Marietta during WWII.....

  6. United State WAR BIRDS... Honoring The Warriors!

    The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, called "Jugs". I met a Jugs pilot years back when he was commander of KAFB. During WWII he flew them in Europe he took one out and when it came back it has so many bullet holes in it they didn't bother to count them. It was a tank was the heaviest fighter on...

    Winchester Model 37 20 gauge. From my grandpa..... When they sold these they didn't put any serial numbers on them.

  8. United State WAR BIRDS... Honoring The Warriors!

    Been there MANY times. Home of the world's largest RF anechoic chamber. The Benefield Anechoic (BAF) Chamber. Many a movie has featured the inside of this hangar beast (e.g., Armageddon). It's pretty much MILES from civilization.

    Meet TurboFlash

    This is my little buddy "Turbo." I made him. As I was bringing the idea to life, he told me who and what he was and should be. He LOVES The Flash as evidenced by his medallion and his running stance. His base is a doubled-over flash lightning bolt (cuz he's twice as fast - Turbo fast). He...

    My Son in Hawaii

    My 'company' sent me to Hawaii in 71 coming back from Kadena on emergency leave. The 141 landed and we couldn't depart until two airmen with a DDT can in both hands went up and down the cargo bay spraying the inside. We had to remain seated. Got to spend a few hours at Hickam waiting on the...

    Ammo - the good ole days

    I know how you feel...me the same way....some people here think you should stock what they want when they don't have the sense or money and keep it secure, safe, in good conditions (temp and humidity) just waiting for them to complain you're a gouger/flipper and want you to sell it to them what...

    Ammo - the good ole days

    I bought a spam can of surplus WWII 45 ACP in 2001...turns out it was ALL USGI War manufactured ammo from the biggest and best ammo and gun makers that fed the WWII machine. It still shoots, but it has to have a very heavy receive because it's all nearly slug-sealed with some kind of sealer...
