    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Woww, I love seeing the AA metal.
    And love seeing it STILL out there today!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Unreal stuff. That AA is awesome. Hope Art gets busy. John showed me some equally crazy stuff at Howard Beach back in Dec that he has.

    Congrats on the top of the day too for John. What a way to get your feet wet.

    For those out there that haven't had the benefit of seeing some of John's collection just yet, get set to be blown away in the coming weeks and months as Art begins to upload them.

    There are some real surprises in there. :)

    Awesome blast from the past, reminds me of going to JFK as a kid and visiting the observation deck (I think it was at the Eastern terminal). Glad these classic pics are being shared with the world.

    Mike, Thanks for hooking John and Art up, and Art thanks for all the appreciated work you are doing. Amazing stuff, I actually like the Air Canada classics's the most, actually remember seeing a few Vanguards at TPA when I was really little, even one in Trans Canada colors on one of my first trips to the airport.

    Cheers
