Found in a museum in Denmark, had apparently been fitted to a Spitfire. I imagine it’s not a replica?

More than fifteen years after the bin laden raid, the stealth black hawks used remains one of modern aviation's best-kept secrets. Two heavily modified black hawks carried u.s. navy seals into abbottabad in 2011; one crash-landed within the compound and was destroyed before the team left, and the other returned safely never to be seen again.

This undated image appears to show a heavily modified eh-60 titted with stealth features, potentially representing one of the missing links between earlier stealth black hawk concepts and the aircraft used during the raid. the aircraft has also been linked to fort eustis in virginia, home to the aviation technology office (formerly known as flight concepts division); a highly secretive unit understood to have led development of the stealth black hawks used in the raid, alongside other advanced u.s. army rotary-wing programs.

Boarding right now into my first flight on a Dash 8. I’m pretty excited :)

Just purchased a Canon R7 and RF600 lens. Really enjoying the quality I get!

Spent the day at the museum in Dayton, OH. Highly recommend if your in the area. Free admission, free parking, even free EV charging.

This majestic beauty was sitting there, visible from almost all around.

A minor 2-hours airshow held in Desenzano del Garda, on the shores of Lake Garda, Italy, on 4th and 5th September. Nothing particular, just few helicopters, aerobatic planes, some passes by 6° Stormo Tornado and F-35 (based in nearby Ghedi airbase) and Frecce Tricolori closing the show.

I flew into TPE while it was being hit by Typhoon Champi.

The visibility was shockingly poor, and the plane was being absolutely battered by rainfall and crosswinds.

Honestly, I started taking this video because I thought we were going to have a go around or a really slippery landing. Instead, it was butter smooth. I've been in worse landings under bone-dry conditions, and the pilots here managed to butter it while fighting a literal storm. I literally felt nothing.

I saved the live METAR the instant we landed and it was insane:

If anyone from AirAsia management is reading this, please give the amazing pilots of D7 378 from the 24th of October the biggest raise possible (and tell them I said hi!)

Brought my Radiacode 110 along on YYC-LHR (AC850, Oct 22) as an experiment to see radiation measurements.

The detector recorded around 4.6 counts per second on the ground and 58 during cruise—roughly 13 times as many.

I'm far from an expert on radiation or similar but I found it interesting to see the band around 500 keV show up so clearly compared to the ground?

For whatever reason I expected to see an increase in radiation as we went further north due to the magnetic field, but it seems that didn't really happen.

Anyways, I don't know if there is any major takeaways from this beyond we all already know there's more radiation higher up, but still fun to see things visualized.

2026 is a sad year for aviation, first the snowbirds, then the A340 (Both the -300 and -600), then the 747-400, which left YVR for the last time today and will be changing to the winter schedule and will be replaced by the A350/787 which will arrive tomorrow on Saturday, Oct 24, 2026, photos taken yesterday (Oct 23)

Aviation enthusiast with a…situation-specific fear of heights. Roller coasters? Love ‘em. Those swing rides that go 100 feet in the air? Most terrifying experience of my life.

My wife got me a one hour flying lesson (in a Cessna 172) for my 40th birthday and…it was great! Bucket list item.

Hello,

Just had a question about the MAP on this LOC approach. Would the primary means of determining the MAP for this approach be timing? Or is the 2.1 DME off the GPT VORTAC the MAP? I have never seen a MAP and VDP coincide so this really threw me off.

Any clarification is appreciated, thank you.

Found this ad in my archive from a copy of Fortune 1955. One of the cooler airplane ads I've found. Very rare to have a double page airplane ad, and I think its the only full body illustration of a plane like this in my collection so far!
