That is a a British 777....On a site note, I am not a happy camper that I was wearing a crappy Old Navy shirt, I wish I had my NYCAviation shirt then, but this site was not even a glimmer in Phils head.


Fred you never showed me those TWA connie photos!! Are you holding out on me? Did you happen to get insider her?

Yes Tom I am holding out!!!!, she is sealed for protection



the prop was a b24
Right, but what is the guy doing.... I can only give you 1/2 point....sorry

On a side note, I think I took about 1600 shots on that day alone in the desert....if you want to come over and see them all, Please bring a 12pack! ;)

That's a B-58 Hustler. We used to have one on display (may still be there) at Grissom AFB, one of the few places it was stationed. In fact, that's an old Grissom bird, that's the old wing patch (305th Bomb Wing) it's wearing over the SAC star banner (forget the "accepted" name for it) The "Can Do" slogan was still on our wing patch after we became the 305 Air Refueling Wing.

Naming the type will do, but who can identify the airline? As a hint, it's a European charter airline

MORS-AB-ALTO
2006-06-13, 03:33 PM
Well, it's definately a Boeing from FlyJet in the UK. 767 or 757 is the question? Considering the closeness of the door to flightdeck I'm going with The Tube.

Ok, so everyone knows, I am probably at a total DISadvantage having Phil sitting right by me during this game. I say "is it an embraer?" and he's like "you know the rules."

He thinks it's funny making me post wrong answers.

So, now I have to guess publicly again.

Is #8 is a CRJ....Northwest new colors perhaps? Or a 73something.

5-USA 3000 A320?

Right again!

No.


Or a 73something.

As if I'd accept an answer like that.
