USS LIBERTY: WE HAVE THE SMOKING GUN!
Liberty deniers continue to insist that, despite all the evidence, the attack
on our ship must have been a mistake. "Israel would not do such a thing to its
best friend," they insist. They persist in presenting silly arguments such as
"poor memory," "fog of...

Older airframes by
Jim
This time of the year I usually ask the regular readers of this
newsgroup which aircraft they flew years ago they'd most like to see
with a newer engine. Always worthy of many fine comments.

Side slip by
Jim
For any of you who flew in Keflavik you are aware of the horrendous cross
winds we often had there. Turns out that Airbus used KEF recently to
qualify the A380. Check out the video for details. The video narrative
is in Icelandic but I'm certain you won't need it to judge what is going
on.

NAS OAKLAND? by
Jdf4cheval
Over a few beers today with a former Marine and sailor from the Fifties, "NAS
Oakland" was mentioned. The Marine recalled it was in the old section of what
is now Oakland Internatinal Airport. One of the surviving buildings may still
have Navy wings on it. Has anyone else heard of NAS OAKLAND?

Anybody know what the max trap of a Spad was? Don't know much about this

Martin PBM Mariner by
Elmshoot
Guys I am building a very large flying scale model of the MArtin PBM Mariner.
Could some of you look through your shoe box full of airplane pictures and see
if you might have some shots of this old bird that I might find suitable for
finishing my model like.
