This is one of my favourites. Awesome shots! Thank you so much for sharing. Who is keeping the F4 Phantom flying? It must cost a fortune.
Thanks for the pictures of the Spitfire FR14E & the Corsair FG1D.....pure airplane porn ..... And 2 awesome airplanes at that
We had a fly-in and air race last weekend out at Wickenburg airport. Jason Rovey. He and I are on the airport commission. This Lancair Super Legacy was friggin' fast. Coming down from 13,000 feet, he almost hit 400 MPH. S.C.
Ah. Are they really that expensive? I figured with all the surplus parts that europe has the only huge cost for them would be fuel.
I knew an experienced pilot who died with his fiancee in a Lancair IV, and another guy who owned one that was also crashed. I'm not an knowledgeable aviation guy, but I'm curious about the reputation that the Lancair has as a difficult/dangerous aircraft. Any thoughts?
I think that's an older photo, not from this year's Duxford. Collins Foundation in the US have one that can be hired for airshows, and for a measly $12500 you can go up in it yourself.
Look like the Burmese Spitfire dig is getting closer to a go. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/10/17/myanmar-signs-deal-to-dig-up-buried-wwii-planes/?test=latestnews
Personally, no. I'm not knowledgeable on the subject, but this is an interesting read: http://www.seqair.com/FlightTest/KillYourself/KillYourself.html S.C.

Thanks again for posting the link. I enjoyed looking through them. Theres some great shots in there. I googled some of the rego numbers and found that a lot of the aircraft no longer exist.
