    Nice shots, I really like the Aerosvit tower shot, very original.
    Also, whats the story behind the Tu-134 shot?

    The seats in the TU 134 all fold down. just kick them and they go down. and you gotta love the curtains for the windows. Remember, all those types were made to quickly convert from civilian to military suring the Cold War. They are noisy, smoky, and all about power.

    Can you change the title and have others post in it? THOSE WERE AWESOME! I would like to see others and I would love to put some more up too. I would rather those awesome shots start a great thread. Huh?
