Long time, no spot! Recently finally got back out to IAH to check out the (fairly recently) re-opened Rankin Road spotting location. Gotta say...think it's one of my new favorite spots!

It's....happening. The first real aircraft change (sorta) in 30 years!

Here's a few more. I will say, the air show did suffer from 'over promising and under delivering'. Half the normal warbirds flew, and a lot of the classic jets never got off the ground (F-4, Mig-21,...
Just got home and so many pictures to go through. But, we got something extra special today. For whatever reasons, the Blue Angels were in their rarely seen 'throwback' gold flight suits. I know they...
In addition to the F-4 being 'iffy' at best, for whatever reason, the organizers traded the F-86, which hasn't flow in Houston in over a decade, for an F8F, which flies in the show every year. Kinda...
So...not sure what more you can ask for. Beautiful tropical island getting blown to oblivion by a B-52 from a unique camera angle.

The F-4's participation now looks iffy. :frown:
*The F-4 is waiting for the new engine being rebuilt, delays have occurred and possibly won't be ready for the show. The crews are working hard to...
If he meant to say that, I don't think he would have used past tense.
Korean Air also flew passengers with the MD-11. As did American Airlines, Alitalia, Air Nambia, China Airlines, El Al, Finnair, Garuda Indonesia, Ghana Airways, Japan Airlines....you get the idea. A...
I remember this VHS being in our local rental store waaay back in the early 1990s. By the grace of God, someone else knew about it and uploaded it to Youtube. Features musical montages of various air...
They added Randy Ball, an F-86 demonstration, Debbie-Rhinn Harvey, and David Martin. USCG demo looks confirmed now, too. Little more than a month to go!
But, you also have this: http://theaviationist.com/2014/07/21/su-27s-escorted-mh17/
You ding the Daily Mail for speculation then cite CNN? :p
Seriously, though, the part I posted isn't speculation. The video exists, as you just backed up with what you saw on TV, and screenshots...

Read, no. But it was a topic of discussion in the breaking news when I made the comment five hours ago. :p
Based on deleted Facebook posts by Russian separatists, they thought it was a Ukrainian military plane and boasted about the shoot down, saying 'stay out of our airspace'. They then deleted it and...

Sounds like the guy leading the team recently was up to no good.
Having a day off today, I decided to head to the Houston Museum of Natural Sciences and check out the Magna Carta while it's still here and the still relatively new Morian Hall of Paleontology....
How? The way it was flying, it's obvious the person knew what they were doing...highly likely they had planned on the last place anyone would look to land and hide it.
I'm finding any chances of...
Airliner made 'tactical maneuvers' to avoid radar. This is getting crazier and crazier...

Malaysian government concludes Flight 370 was hijacked:

As well as the destroyer USS Kidd.
Kinda amazed that this topic is so silent, especially that it's now known the transponder was manually shut off and the plane kept flying for five hours according to radar pings.
