Thunderbirds are in town from Technorati
The absolutely fabulous US Air force Thunderbirds are in town this weekend. They have been flying practice this week and had two shows on Saturday and Sunday above Hickam Air Force Base. I love watching those amazing pilots flying in formation (not so much love when they do the fly at each other near misses). Luckily for us, their flight was right out our backyard (and occasionally overhead). one of my faves of the day, complete with vapor trails and sun

The Wild Grey Yonder from Technorati
My old roomie came to visit last week, and one of the things we did was take in the Capitol City Airshow out at Mather Field. They called it an airshow, but I think it was actually an elaborate ceremony meant to guarantee rain. We had a blazing, painfully unclouded summer here, until the week of the airshow, when it began to get grey, and the wind began to kick up. As far as I know, however, none of it was so inclement as to warrant an interruption of the flying, so in a way we had our cake and ...

2009 Red Bull Air Race World Championship finale takes off in Barcelona by Flightline UK
Heat is on as 2009 Red Bull Air Race World Championship finale heads to Barcelona
BARCELONA, Spain – Britain's Paul Bonhomme will try to clinch his first-ever title in the 2009 season finale in Barcelona on 3-4 October after seeing the crown slip from his grasp at the very end of both the 2007 and 2008 seasons. But Bonhomme will be feeling intense pressure from defending champion Hannes Arch of Austria, who is just four points behind, going into the climatic battle over Spain's Mediterranean shoreline on the Front Maritim. In a thrilling race in Porto earlier this month Bonhomme topped Arch...

Amazing Precision Flight Video by AdamZ
Amazing Precision flight video! Its interesting to see how a highly skilled team of pilots work together. I couldn't beleive how close to the ground they flew. One pilot even recovers from a bird strike that you can see on the video. They even do a mock combat segement that is pretty bone chilling.

Above and Beyond: Recovery: Bataan - Air & Space Magazine
Two fighters went after each other at midafternoon on February 9, 1942, with machine guns blazing. They were scant feet above the dense jungle enveloping the Mariveles volcano on the Philippines' Bataan peninsula. Sergeant Toshisada Kurosawa, Imperial Japanese Army, was flying a Nakajima Ki-27 "Nate"; U.S. Army Air Forces Lieutenant Earl R. Stone was in a Curtiss P-40 Warhawk.
The two airplanes circled, popping in and out of a cloud layer blanketing the peak. Finally the Ki-27, having emerged from the mist, slipped behind the P-40, trailing white smoke. As both aircraft approached Cogon Tarac, a spiny ridge that juts from the volcano, red tracers arced toward the P-40. The airplanes disappeared into the murk. ...
Tuskegee Airmen from Nuts About Southwest
Length: 14:22
This show was originally released in August of 2007. I just don't think this group can get enough recognition. I am talking about the Tuskegee Airmen and those involved with the Tuskegee Aviation Experiment.
On this episode of Red Belly Radio, I interview one of the original Tuskegee Airmen and historian, Leroy Gilleed, about how the Airmen came about and the war for these men was not only fought overseas, but right here at home.
Martial Arts - Air & Space Magazine
Shortly after 9 p.m. on a rainy February night in Los Angeles, Tony Chong switched on his home computer, logged into eBay, and began his nightly aircraft hunt. For more than two decades, Chong had been making exquisite aircraft models at Northrop Grumman's display model shop—and collecting the rare desktop models his company and other U.S. airplane makers distributed to promote their programs. Often the listings on eBay were for castoffs, but that night in 2005 one model gave him a jolt: Painted in mottled camouflage and balanced on a familiar pentagon base, it was an 18-inch-long concept model of a Northrop Grumman FB-23 advanced bomber.
Chong recognized it immediately. It had come from his shop—and it was one of his company's most closely guarded secrets. Somebody was punching a big hole into the black world of Northrop Grumman's classified aircraft projects. ...
