Classic Fighters 2009 #1: Introduction from Rodney's Aviation Ramblings
Wow! Another airshow! This time, it was the Classic Fighters Airshow held at Omaka aerodrome this weekend. As expected it was an excellent airshow and well worth the visit... the only problem is that I took a lot of photos, and now I have to sort them out and try to decide which ones to post. To give you an idea, I took 601 photos. I have culled that down to 442 pictures by eliminating the out of focus [well, most of them!], boring and just plan rubbish :-) shots. Probably a lot more culling to occur. ...
Classic Fighters 2009 #2: RAAF Caribou from Rodney's Aviation Ramblings
For me, one of the signature aircraft for the airshow [although not my favourite as we will see in another post] was the Royal Australian Air Force [RAAF] de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou, operated by the RAAF's No. 38 Squadron.
This is the first time I have seen a Caribou, and probably just as well I did as the RAAF is due to retire these aircraft later this year. In fact, this particular aircraft [A4-195] had a 45 years of operations logo painted on the front-left of the fuselage. ...

Around the world in home-built airplane from www.sun-sentinel.com
WEST LANTANA - Imagine riding from Palm Beach County to Orlando in an MG Midget or a Mazda Miata — eating, using a laptop and, maybe, wanting to use the bathroom all at once.
That's what it will be like for a German couple who left Lantana airport Monday on a three-year world journey in a small, homemade aircraft.
"Every small space is used," said Detlef Heun, who along with his fiancee, Liliana Tagliamonte, headed for the Bahamas in the RV-7 airplane they bought in 2005 and built from a kit over three years.
The LA Times tips over the OXCART from Dick's Rocket Dungeon
The LA Times has a really interesting article about Area 51. With the declassification of the top secret OXCART project, five ex-Area 51 employees can now spill their guts about their experiences there, including speculation about where many UFO stories have originated from. Cool stuff. ... From Wikipedia, I see OXCART was the code name for the Lockheed A-12, a precursor to the SR-71 Blackbird (pictured).
