That's a co-incidence! I've visited the museum and the tankers in June 2023. :D Very friendly folks there. Treated them to some Dutch Stroopwafels for their kindness (I always bring some when traveling). Ref: https://arnoud.raeven.nl/oregon. I see that you were there in the afternoon. I was there o...
Part two consists of Erickson Aircraft Collection - Most of the exhibits are in airworthy condition. There is many more airplanes than the pictures show. I've edited maybe half of the collection. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53011745809_0f0692a029_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/530...
Hi, Last month I had the chance to visit home of Erickson Aero Tankers. Lots of goodies on the ramps. First batch consists of the aircraft not tied to the museum, and later on I'll post some shots from the Erickson Aircraft Collection museum. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53005646221_4b8c5a363...
Two nice visitors to MRB. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52956181994_704f050df0_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955441427_e9dd1f0ac1_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52954736377_02d32b4b2a_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52955784258_0dd83cc4a7_b.jpg
Hi Guys, Recently I visited this place and had a chance to pop in to that Oregon airport couple of times. Unfortunately the time I was able to visit the airport Sky Jumper Sherpas were always in the hangars. They usually fly Mo-Fr between 10am and 2pm. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52935490847...
Later that day I was awaiting the airplanes which evacuated day before. Here are some of them. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52933176821_9332ffafc4_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52933331254_beb349dafb_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52932416428_a01b10713f_b.jpg https://li...
Morning the next day I went and visited Tinker Heritage Park. This guy is actually across the street at Oklahoma Welcome Center. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52930369850_4257dc77e6_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52930369845_56c084b7b2_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52929...
Hi All, Visited Tinker earlier in the month. On the south side of the airfield they have decent spotting area. First day was a bust. A lot of E-3s took off and never came back. When I got to the hotel I found out that there is tornado warning and that's why a lot of the birds evacuated from the base...
Hi All, Had a chance to visit Tulsa airport. Was planning on staying little longer at the aircraft observation area but the rain changed my plans. I'm looking for help with ID of the North Vietnamese Air Force MiG-21 which is planted in front of the Tulsa Air & Space Museum. Appreciate any help....
Hi All, Went out to Andrews to catch Luftwaffe's A400 in special Air Defender 2023 colors. Got the US side on arrival. The other nice catch was UH-1 in retro colors. Plus few other regulars that flew in front of the camera that day. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52800012805_04c9c3c0be_b.jpg ht...
Hi All, Couple of hours near Bolling AB catching helicopter traffic. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52795713273_8c0162b056_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52795509814_8792dc0cf0_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52794903706_e732ba416d_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...
Last morning in Florida and at FLL. Only 3 hours in the park and I had to go back to the hotel to check out and catch my flight back home. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52777192558_20650e99d3_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52777192578_5ffdd9635c_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/6...
