Wings Over Houston Statics 1 (Read 268 times)

Well, here is the first of two batches from my phone.  Later I will try and get some good pics off of my dads camera.

*Drool* Engine of a b-25
...

This is my favorite pic.  It is the 147th FW from ellington field.  I love the tail.  But the best part is that just as I took this pic, debbie gary pulled up in her SF260.  Perfect!
...

A washed out pic of the C-17.  This thing is big!
...

The harrier.  This is the static one, but the other one put on an amazing display.  It flew backwards!
...

More harrier, you can see the engine pretty well through the inlets.
...

I liked this pic of the harrier
...

Thats the SF.260.  I know, I know, the pic is tiny
...

Buisiness end of a Mig-21
...

More in the next post, including a pic of the notorious Jakemaster!

Well, this was the firs time I saw the harrier.  And I truly believe that it was an amazing display.

I've seen the Harrier many times since it was first displayed at the Farnborough Air Show over 40 years ago. I still marvel at it now & it's the star of the show wherever it appears. It will be a sad day for me & I suspect many others when this fine aircraft is retired from service.

From the latest estimates I think we'll have another eight or nine years of the Gr.7/9 yet Doug! Smiley

Yes, RAF Harrier pilots are evil! They all seem to take a sadistic kind of pleasure out of blasting everyone’s eardrums out for 10minutes by farting-about over the runway in full hover!  Roll Eyes Smiley
