DC-3 75th Anniversay Tour from Hiller Aviation Museum
Day 5 – Oshkosh | What can you say about Oshkosh that has not already been said? Anything and everything related to aviation is here. We are only here one full day so there was so much to do and see that we didn't spend allot of time with the plane.
With all the rains and the fact that Oshkosh is so big the DC-3's/C-47's are spread out all over the place. We're not sure how many planes made it. It must be out on the internet somewhere but all we know is there are a whole bunch here. ...

Central IN plane crash investigated by FAA - WAVE 3 - Louisville, KY
SEYMOUR, IN (WAVE) - A central Indiana plane crash is being investigated by the Federal Aviation Administration. The World War One era bi-plane went down on July 27 in Seymour, IN.
Indiana State Police say Philip Krueger of Freeton had minor bruises and scrapes as a result of the crash.
Krueger lifted off from Freeman Field in his SE 5A single engine plane and reached an altitude of 50 to 60 feet when he lost power and crashed the plane in a field just north of the runway.
According to police, a similar crash happened to the plane in 2008.
Battle of Britain prelude: the Luftwaffe "Ural... from x planes
The Dornier Do 19 was built as result of Luftwaffe Chief of Staff General Walter Wever's 1934 proposition for the construction of a long range strategic bomber - capable of reaching targets deep in Russia, and the British naval base in Scapa Flow, Scotland.
Battle of Britain prelude: the Luftwaffe "Ural... from x planes
The Junkers Ju 89 was the second design for the Luftwaffe's proposed long-range strategic "Ural bomber"
On 3rd June 1936, General Walter Wever - the creator and champion of the Ural bomber project - was killed when his Heinkel He 70 crashed on take-off.
On 11th April 1937, the Ju 89 made its first flight.
On 29th April 1937, all development on the Ju 89 and the Dornier 19 was cancelled by the German air ministry.
Wever's vision of a "balanced" Luftwaffe - both tactical and strategic - had suffered a huge blow. The focus would be on the development and production of medium bombers (incuding the Ju 88, the prototype of which is the smaller aircraft in the top image above)...
World War II: B-25 Mitchell Hits the Empire State Building from About.com Military History
July 28, 1945 - A B-25 Mitchell bomber (right) accidently collides with the Empire State Building. Flown by Lt. Col. William Franklin Smith, the B-25 was completing a transport mission from Boston to New York. Approaching LaGuardia Airport, Smith was informed that visibility was reduced to zero due to fog. Attempting to land anyway, he became disoriented in the fog and struck the north side of the Empire State Building between the 78th and 80th floors. While the resulting fire was contained, fourteen, including Smith, were killed in the accident.
