jfields 0 #1 March 11, 2003 These images came by my computer, and I had to share. I bet each and every one has a "No shit, there I was" behind it somewhere. First 4 of 8 pictures. The rest will follow in another post, because of the attachment limit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sinker 0 #6 March 11, 2003 here's my contribution... it's an f-15 crashing at an airshow. The follow up shot didn't upload due to size, it is after the dust cleared. Anyone wants it I'll email it to them. I have another that is too big of an F-18 just after takeoff, maybe 6-10 feet off the runway w/ an engine WAY on fire. It's really quite a pic. email me for it. -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 0 #8 March 11, 2003 I really like all the mystery meat pics, to me that is the most interesting aspect of aviation, the experimental aircraft and the just plain weird.

diverdriver 7 #10 March 11, 2003 QuoteRe: DC10s Spooky. I remember those issues about the engines. All because of a three-inch long screw if memory serves me correctly. Yikes... Actually, it wasn't just the fact that the engine left the plane. Yes, having an engine fall off is a bad thing. But when it left it took out the hydraulics on that side. The leading edge flaps retracted without any pressure holding them in place. So the left wing began to stall. That's what rolled the plane over. They figured later that had the crew leveled the plane and gained airspeed they could have flown out of it. But hell, hind sight is 20/20. It brought about some changes.

flyingferret 0 #14 March 11, 2003 Pretty cool one here, that I had never heard of http://www.aviationpics.de/preview/hc1det207.jpg Although the caption is slightly misleading, it sounds like we dumped (5 is what I have heard) South Vietnamese Hueys off the Midway during the evacuation to make room for our own birds. http://www.digitaljournalist.org/issue0005/ch8.htm-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI.
