P-51D ‘Marinell’ 44-13521 operated by Duxford-based Aircraft Restoration Company. Seen here appearing at the Shuttleworth Season Premiere airshow at Old Warden with pilot is Isabel Rutland at the controls.
This aircraft flew with the 504th Fighter Squadron, 339th Fighter Group, Eighth Air Force based at RAF Fowlmere in Cambridgeshire, England during 1944. 44-13521 was assigned to Captain Bradley Stevens, and named 'Marinell' by him after a girl he had met during his training. On 13th August 1944 the aircraft was lost on a dive bombing mission whilst being flown by another pilot, Second Lieutenant Myer R. Winkelman who lost his life.
The wreckage was recovered in 1998 and a project to restore the aircraft to airworthy status came to fruition in 2008 when the aircraft took the skies again after more than 60 years.
P&O Oceana steekt net voorbij de kade uit, ondertussen heeft ze de vloot van P&O verlaten en vaart nu onder de naam Queen of the Oceans
P&O Oceana sticks out just past the quay, meanwhile she has left the P&O fleet and now sails under the name Queen of the Oceans
Valkenburg, 30 July 1986.
P.3-3 of 221 Escuadron was the first Spanish Orion to visit Valkenburg.
It's preserved at the gate of Moron de la Frontera.
P&LE 1589 is working on the branch to New Castle as it blocks the CSX main at OA Tower in Mahoningtown, PA on March 1, 1991. There was an actual tower here at one time. Of course the diamond is no longer there and even the CSX main has been rearranged through here, with the Eastbound main now on the old P&LE out of view to the left.

#213/365 I thought I'd take it easy with this one and do a close up nature shot. This is probalby what a P&S excels at the most. With a DSLR you need to buy a macro lens but with a p&s you just need to put it in flower mode and instant macro photography. (I tried to find a flower, but not sure if its the time of the year or just the intense heat we've been getting here but I came up with nothing). Enjoy your Saturday.
The BAE P.1216 was developed as a follow on to the Harrier. A limitation of the Harrier was that it was unable to achieve supersonic flight. The P.1216 was intended to remedy that with its engine and sharply swept wings. Due to the vibrations introduced by the more powerful engine, the fuselage was kept as short as possible, with distinctive twin booms going around and providing the rest of the aircraft functions.
Tested as a model in the 1980s, it was likely canceled due to the end of the Cold War and the nascent beginnings of what we know now as the F-35.

One of those “what if” aircrafT that never made it past the concept stage, with very little documentation, this jet was a bear to figure out. Without cutaways, I had to infer where fuel, weapons, engine chambers, and avionics would go to make the most sense. The most challenging part was the underside and the thrust vectoring engine. It’s a fun model to do VTOL takeoffs and landings with.
Another shot from the Mid Atlantic Air Museum's WWII Weekend.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Sky pirate Grant "Mad Dog" Hendricks piloting his P-23 Skywolf. A member of the feared Crossbones Gang they terrorised air shipping, stealing cargo and holding passengers for ransom until Hendricks was finally shot down by flying ace Betty Redwing with a lucky shot to the nose! The rest of the gang were rounded up and imprisoned except for "Ratface" Watkins who escaped and was never found. The plane was originally developed for the Kovlakian Air Force and carried six "Hades" shrapnel missiles but after several incidents of its missiles misfiring and blowing up the plane, they were quietly scrapped. A few found their way onto the black market where they were snapped up by sky pirates for whom their safety record wasn't a problem...
