I have been here often. Took many pictures in the past, but now decided to try and make them more interesting.I try to practice my skills and become better in photographing, especially indoors. It's difficult to photographe in the Aviodrome, as it is very dark and no room around the aircraft...

I am looking to identify airplanes that are in pictures with my grandfather when he served in WWII. I have attached the pictures. My grandfather, Bernard J Hurley, served as a Corporal in the 895th Chemical Company of the U.S. Army. He traveled to Texas, Missouri, Australia, New Guinea, the...

In May 1937 George Volkert, then chief designer at Handley Page, wrote a memorandum about the design of future bomber aircraft and the influence that bombing policy would have on design. In the introduction, he states: He continues: From this we can see that the high speed unarmed bomber...

I hope, the link isn´t anywhere here already. The Library of Congress digitized 170.000 pictures, made between 1935 and 1945 by the United States Farm Security Administration and Office of War Information (FSA-OWI). Photogrammar They shows topics of agriculture, but industry, and there aircraft...

Noticed on youtube the 12 exhaust stacks on each cylinder bank on it's Allison engine. Is this exclusive to Kingcobras? Also wikipedia states the russians were'nt to use these aircraft against the Germans??? Why on earth not?

I'm curious why the 56th FG didn't transfer to the P-51B. The P-51B had higher top speed, faster rate of climb, better turn time, longer range, better roll rate, higher critical mach speed and nearly half the price. It would seem 100% logical to simply move to the better plane, right? I'd assume...

Interesting reading North American's Lightweight Mustangs (P-51H/P-51M/P-51L) Sounds like Edgar Schmeud wasn't to happy with his P51's climb rate compared to the spitfire I know the P51B/C wasn't bad in that area, but the Heavy D model suffered. A shame because if this plane came...

Hello, I was hoping that someone on this site might be able to help me better identify a Japanese aircraft compass instrument I have. All of the identification and information located on the case, and the instrument, are in Japanese, so I had someone do some rough translation. The label...
