Air Power Expo 2010 (Videos and Pics) by maxlibra | Though a modern-day airshow may not, on the surface, appear to be Steampunk in the strictest sense, powered flight was one of the driving goals of the genre. Even without elegant zeppelins and hot-air balloons, the biplanes, propjobs, and rotocopters managed to make a glorious showing this weekend at the Air Power Expo 2010 at Carswell AFB in Fort Worth, TX. It was made all the more impressive by demonstration from a 50-year old female Wingwalker. That is to say, someone who literally walks, surfs, rides, dances, and does acrobatics on the wing and body of the plane as it flies. Just watch…

DC-3 Stories Abound from AVwebFlash Current Issue | As details firm up for the huge gathering of DC-3 and C-47 aircraft just before AirVenture, those with a personal attachment to the venerable aircraft are telling their stories. Organizers of the Last Time, a celebration of the 75th anniversary of the first flight of the aircraft, have opened a diary section on their Web site that encourages the swapping of yarns about the iconic aircraft. From stories about JATO-assisted takeoffs (800 feet) to bush flying to super secret electronic surveillance missions in Vietnam, the site covers the history of the aircraft through the eyes of those who flew it. Although more than 130 such stories have been added to the site, organizers say that's the tip of the iceberg and they're hoping for thousands of entries. Meanwhile preparations continue for the mass formation flight of 40 aircraft from Rock Falls, ILL to Oshkosh for the opening day of AirVenture on July 26 which will include one of the last flying DC-2s in existence.

CoolPix - Modern Military: 1960's Era OV-10 Bronco! by Martt | I woke up this morning with a craving for OV-10 Bronco!  I started digging thru the internet and came across this sweet pic and thought: yep, that looks like a CoolPix to me.  So I tweaked it a tad in photoshop and now here it is for you to open up nice and big and take a good look at one of the neatest little military aircraft ever made.  And don't forget that CoolPix images make pretty nice desktop backgrounds as well, that's part of the reason I make them available like I do…

This Week In Military/Aviation History 26 April - 2 May from Warbirds Online by Tom Kwiatkowski Sr. | Hello Folks, I'm in a better mood this week, even though my computer contacted a serious virus and had to go to the shop. It's back now and I feel better, but there is still some odd stuff I have to replace or learn to live without. No biggie. Geez Folks, the A-20 assembly in Geneseo at the 1941 Historical Aircraft Group Museum is going like gangbusters. Both engines and props, along with the nacelle rear cones are on. The port outer wing panel is on with the starboard next in line to be installed. She's shaping up great. I wish I could post some photos or live links to our Message Board, but I am unable to at this time. Sorry. As I said before, you, should you choose to do so, can go to our website  www.1941hag.org  subheading Message Board and take a look at the latest A-20 update post. Ok, commercial over, let's get started on our weekly trip down History Lane, shall we? Yes, I think we shall. Tom K.
