The topic for this week is Aircraft. Really any kind of shot or type of aircraft, detail, in flight, interior, etc. The more unusual the better.

Winning and Running a Contest
1. If you enter the Show and Tell Contest, please note the closing date and be sure to check back to see if you won.

Great topic, Walter!

My first thought was "The Blue Angels", but upon reflection, it seems a little obvious. I really like this shot, though!



So, onto my actual submissions from the Museum of Flight in Seattle.

Did you know the ARMY had planes?


There is a reason that most pilots are not 6'5" (195 cm)!

Sorry, Jon! (That's my brother, The Photo Tuell)

And finally, a panorama made in ICE, then cropped and reduced in size for this entry. This is only part of the main exhibit room...
