Hi

Here is a photo that I took of the tail of the T-1 which shows the display of the serial

Hi I took the opportunity of a family holiday in Orlando to escape to go to the Moody AFB Airshow last week. There was a small static display but luckily the shelters with the based A-10's were visible - no good for photographs but about 40 A-10's hit the log book. A full log can be found here http:...

Hi While on a family holiday in Orlando I persuaded my wife that she needed a relaxing day by the pool so that I could do the 500 mile round trip to the Moody show. Although the static display was sparse the fact that we were able to get close to the shelters with the based A-10's made up for it! I ...

Just my luck!

There was no sign of any activity at the ANG base - in fact I am not sure that the gate was even manned! I thought that they were meant to be 'weekend warriors'!

As I have been in Montana for work and I had a spare day before I flew home I headed up state to explore Helena Regional Airport and Great Falls International(!) Airport. Obviously if anyone can help confirm the identify the AH-1's at Helena it would be much appreciated. I have posted some photo's o...

Hi After a week working in Montana I had a spare day before flying back to the UK so I took a drive in search of a few preserved aircraft. Here is what I found:- http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff288/colinnwells/MontanaTour230711079.jpg In Lyons Park, Great Falls is this preserved F-102A Delta Da...

Hi I have had confirmation of 6 of the unidentified C-130's on the ANG ramp as follows:- 02-1463 Lockheed Hercules C-130J United States Air Force 146AW 05-1465 Lockheed Hercules C-130J United States Air Force 146AW 05-1466 Lockheed Hercules C-130J United States Air Force 146AW 07-1468 Lockheed Hercu...

Hi I visited this small airshow on Saturday. The weather was very overcast which restricted the flying display in the morning and I had to leave around lunchtime before the modern military hardware flew. Static 01-1462 Lockheed C-130J Hercules 146 AW / 115 AS 150522/340 Lockheed NP-3D Orion VX-30 15...

Hi I had to go to the US (Montana) for work last week. I added on a couple of days in LA. Here is my log from the trip. Flying out from Heathrow we had a mechanical delay of 3 hours which meant that I knew that I would miss my connection to Bozeman that evening. It did give me a chance to log the fo...

A question, does anybody know if there is a list on the net with an overview what is stored at Pinal?!

I would be very interested to see such a list. I was provided a 'recent' list but I don't know the exact date of it and there are some obvious differences from what I saw.

BTW Colin: Pinal - Tuscon is maybe the shortest hop a 747 ever made (30-40 miles?? ). Do you know why it was going to Tucson?? And did you fly yourself or did you book a flight?? Hi Thermal The pilot told me that they fly to Tucson to deal with Customs and other admin before flying back to Europe t...

A few photos taken during an overflight in November. Unfortunately we could not go below 3,500ft due to traffic in the area (Martinair B747 repositioning to Tucson). Hopefully you find them interesting http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff288/colinnwells/Aviation/DSC_8002-1.jpg http://i239.photobuck...

Just the one from me taken last year at the Andrews Open House
