WINNERS, WINNERS, WINNERS



Judge Mic hath spoken! and his choices are :







Specter177



...


I love the lighting in this shot, especially the setting sun. This, combined with the in your face angle of a

less than pretty C130 alongside a similarly liveried ship made a superb shot.




CONGRATULATIONS Specter177!!!!




In second place, Aussiewannabe


...


A slightly more subtle modification but a lovely use of colour between the plane and scenery brought this beauty

in to second Smiley




In third, Skoker


...


Great modification and a great moody sky...nice work  Cool



.mic"





Nice work on a great comp!  




Cheers

Yeah, but in the thread it says the 7th Tongue

To clarify the topic, the modification can be whatever you want, I'm not gonna get picky about it.....just about anything goes (apart from paintchemes and avionics suites (unless it's a VC shot Wink )

http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/MichJCContest021009.jpg

In the early 1960's, meeting the need for a "counter-insurgency" aircraft, the USAF chosen On Mark Engineering Company of Van Nuys, California proposed the following major modifications to the already existing B-26 airframe: a complete remanufacture of the fuselage and tail assembly, an enlarged rudder, rebuilt and strengthened wings, re-engining with 2,500 hp P&W R-2800-52W engines, larger, fully reversible propellers with automatic feathering and clipped tips, full dual flight controls, two 165 gallon wing tip tanks, a full compliment of airborne electronics and more. This new aircraft was first delivered to the USAF in June of 1964 under the designation B-26K. Later aircraft had their cowlings revised with the air scoop being relocated further back on the cowl. By April of 1965, all forty B-26K Counter-Invaders had been delivered to the USAF.

No doubt about that! I live and work right by where most of them are stationed, and when they are doing training out in the gulf... you can tell when the 105's are being used just by the sound!

Oh okay, because I was only going to not like you if it was the SCA alone. Since it was with the shuttle, I am now forced to hate you.  Wink

Air Force One


Air Force One is the air traffic control call sign of any United States Air Force aircraft carrying the President of the United States. Since 1990, the presidential fleet has consisted of two specifically configured, highly customized Boeing 747-200B series aircraft – tail codes "28000" and "29000" – with Air Force designation "VC-25A". While these aircraft are referred to as "Air Force One" only while the president is on board, the term is commonly used to describe either of the two aircraft normally used and maintained by the U.S. Air Force solely for the president.

Air Force One is a prominent symbol of the American presidency and its power. The aircraft are among the most famous and most photographed in the world.

Though Ronald Reagan's two terms as president saw no major changes to Air Force One, the fabrication of the current 747s began during his presidency. Reagan ordered two identical Boeing 747s to replace the aging 707 that he used for transport. The interior designs were drawn up by First Lady Nancy Reagan, who used designs reminiscent of the American Southwest. The first aircraft was delivered in 1990, during the administration of George H. W. Bush.
