The Airplane Thread

My wife got me this for a stocking stuffer.

Pretty damn cool, considering I've flown this exact tail.

The company has these from a lot of different aircraft. Sadly, there aren't any UAL 737's-- I would have snapped up one of those as well.

A new Chinese 6th generation fighter -- the Shenyang J-XD2 -- has flown for the first time. It may be an unmanned aircraft. It certainly has an unusual layout, with lots of wing area.

I would have to look at my log book to see how many hours in 451 but 45 late was a great jet for a perdiem reserve bum.

451 was going to be the display bird at Travis if memory serves me. Did a Westover Non M crew fly it DM to get chopped up? I was on last B Model flight out of Dover shortly before I retired in Feb 17 due to could not pass the hearing anymore. TF-39's and APU and lawn darts when I worked as a contractor.

McDonnell XP-67 Moonbat with a blended wing

and the Lockheed XP-49 a more powerful derivative of the P-38
