Cobalt Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Starting this thread as i see a need for somewhere to post all those cool aviation pictures. Ill get things started. 1
red750 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Here are a couple from my collection. (Didn't notice I'd slipped past 2000 posts).
Cobalt Posted January 12, 2018 Author Posted January 12, 2018 Haha Red750 it was your baron pics in my silly pictures thread that gave me the idea to start this one.
red750 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 You mean the Bonanzas? I'm getting close to 50 from the Vintage Bonanza Group on Facebook, not to mention all of my own of all sorts of planes. Here are a couple of my vintage ones.

red750 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 The old photos from the 60's were scanned from 35mm slides. Here are some more recent digital ones. 1

red750 Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 As this site likes the ones with the little wheel at the back, here are a few of them.

fatmal Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Not strictly aviation, but it is (a long way) off the ground - the ISS transiting in daylight 7
cscotthendry Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Time to play! All from Oshkosh 17. Yes, that's me walking away from Fifi after a 1 hour flight over EAA Airventure. 3
red750 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 A new one from Vintage Bonanzas Group , a turboprop Bo. 1
red750 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Some more of my personal favourites- The first one is a favourite because I have flown it. See all of these and hundreds more on my flickr.com album, link below.
red750 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 This is one of my more unique photos, used in a few publications, as it is the aircraft missing as Flt MH370. The photo was taken in 2011. 2 2
red750 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Here's some for the Vans fans from the Vans Air Force FB group.
red750 Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 This would not have been an easy shot to get. 2 2
Deskpilot Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Missed perfection by just that much. Brilliant flying and photography.
fatmal Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Stumbled across this on TheAtlantic - Photos of the Week: Transport Mishaps, Epiphany Blessings, Sheep Riding - if anyone here is a surfer, have a look at photo 5 in that link. mal
red750 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 Modified from the civilian Beech Model 36 Bonanza under the Pave Eagle II program, the 27 QU-22Bs delivered to the U.S. Air Force contained several changes for military service. The QU-22B carried a large generator above the engine to power its electronic equipment and additional fuel in extended wing tip tanks for increased range. Its remote control equipment allowed the QU-22B to be flown directly by an onboard pilot or as an unmanned drone. 1
cooperplace Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 This would not have been an easy shot to get.[ATTACH=full]53526[/ATTACH] half an hour with photoshop?
Cobalt Posted January 20, 2018 Author Posted January 20, 2018 half an hour with photoshop? I dont see any reason why anybody would go through the effort to make this in photoshop. It is well within the capabilities of both aircraft and i have no doubt that it would be real.
rgmwa Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 This would not have been an easy shot to get.[ATTACH=full]53526[/ATTACH] Edit: Oops!. Posted about Mark Albery below, but from deanfi's post I see it's a different Beech 18, and RV-8. My mistake, however I'll leave the links as it's an interesting story. What are the odds of getting the wrong RV-8 and Beech 18 combination? There's a background story to this. Mark Albery flew his RV-8 from the UK to the US in 2017 accompanied by a Beech 18. See: Puddle Jumping 2 - The Sequel - VAF Forums Scroll down to post #48: http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=150455&highlight=rv-8&page=5 And here for more photos: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPidnfSUo9okaximxJ9uYuRDmq-BC8GtPxSiQDFtgHKqNyuJEDZWhuUSfTfTENw9g?key=MWx6UmZ4SmkxZzhsZHVSU0lRWHZjTXBWUUlRWHZ3 Fantastic trip.
