The ZBB has just come of of the Lehigh Valley onto the Reading Bethlehem Branch in february 1994. Bethlehem Union Station, which served both the LV and RDG sits vacant at this time. Today the station is used by St. Luke's Health Network. Kodachrome scan.

The train is arriving at Saucon Yard in December 1984 behind an ex. EL SD45-2 and a C30-7. I don't think it's a UBB, it could be the Saucon Drill. Unfortunately I had given up writing things down at this point. Cars are now being stored on the southbound main, and loaded ore cars from a ZBB sit to the right. Kodachrome 64 scan.

The Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia is a twin-turboprop commuter airliner, produced by Embraer of Brazil.

 

After the success of the EMB 110 Bandeirante, Embraer began the development of their first transport category airliner in 1974. The Family 12X comprised three models with modular concept designs: EMB 120 Araguaia, EMB 123 Tapajós and EMB 121 Xingu. EMB 121 was the sole 12X model effectively produced. Araguaia's name was changed to Brasilia in 1979 at the official launching of the project, when at a CAAA (Commuter Airline Association of America) convention several suggestions from prospective operators were collected and incorporated to EMB 120 design. Thus, a completely new aircraft – no longer related to the 12X family – was launched. No common parts from EMB 121 Xingu were used, and the capacity was revised from 24 to 30 seats. Originally designed to utilise the new 1500 shp Pratt & Whitney Canada PW115 turboprop, it was later upgraded to the 1892 eshp PW118.

 

The Brasilia attracted immediate interest from many regional airlines, particularly in the US. The size, speed and ceiling allowed faster and more direct services around the US and Europe, compared to similar aircraft. The first aircraft entered service with Atlantic Southeast Airlines in October 1985. The basic EMB 120RT was upgraded to the extended range (1,575 km) EMB 120 ER, with older aircraft retrofitted via a Service Bulletin.

 

Most of the EMB 120s were sold in the United States and other destinations in the Western Hemisphere. Some European airlines such as Régional in France, Atlant-Soyuz Airlines in Russia, DAT in Belgium, and DLT in Germany also purchased EMB-120s, although the Angolan Air Force, for example, received new EMB 120s in 2007.

 

Great Lakes Airlines operated six EMB 120s in its fleet, and Ameriflight flies 10 as freighters.

 

The Farnborough Airshow, officially the Farnborough International Airshow, is a trade exhibition for the aerospace and defence industries, where civilian and military aircraft are demonstrated to potential customers and investors. Since its first show in 1948, Farnborough has seen the debut of many famous planes, including the Vickers VC10, Concorde, the Eurofighter, the Airbus A380, and the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. At the 1958 show, the RAF’s Black Arrows executed a 22-plane formation loop, setting a world record.

 

The international trade show is put together every two years by FIL Farnborough International Ltd. and runs for five days. Formerly, the show ran for a full week with trade visitors attending on the first five days and the weekend reserved for the general public. Programming takes place at the Farnborough Airfield, which lies roughly 50 kilometres south-west of London.

The hi-light of the show for me, though not a genuine ME despite being listed by the FAA as such. This one is actually a Spanish Hispano HA-1112-M1L Buchon and ironically was originally fitted with a RR Merlin engine. This one actually has the Packard license built version of it and is one of the last built, of which there were 172 of this variant.

N24FJ, Dassault Falcon-900B (CN 143) of Meregrass photographed in the GA area at Edinburgh Airport. Built in 1995, the machine has previously been ZS-ZBB, VP-BZB, CS-DDI, and PH-LCG. A regular that I've featured before, but it's a nice shot with reflected fill light from Phenom D-IAAW providing some sparkle.

The image above is a 2000 X 1250 pixel scan from an original slide. Anything that is not from an original Kodachrome™ is noted as such, including later digital images and a limited number of scanned prints. The vast majority of Kodachrome™ shots were scanned during the period 2007-2014. As of 2022, there remains thousands of scanned, and unscanned images yet to go.

 

Early uploads were done in a 1024 X 683 pixel size. Since then, technology and software has improved, so I am beginning to re-upload in the much larger 2000 X 1250 pixel size, with the eventual goal of having only that format.

 

The images in the various galleries come mostly from my slide collection, gathered over the past 40+ years. They are a combination of my own photographs and others acquired over those years through trading, purchasing, and attending conventions.

 

This photostream was created in 2017 for the sole purpose of holding my slide collection as an archive, and has had over 10 million image views (to 2022)

A short visit to Boundary Bay Airport (ZBB) just south of Vancouver where this B-17G has been resident all week (offering flights for CA$560.00 per person). It was built in 1944 (as was I... and as a 71 year old it's in much better condition than I am!). I was able to walk out onto the ramp and take photo's which was nice!
