Foto presa amb la meva Ihagee VP Exakta del 1933, amb un rodet de Ilford HP5+ 400 en format 127.

 

Al extrem sud del aeroport de Sabadell es troba un tancat amb la ferralla aeronautica abandonada. Majoritariament està formada per Mooney i Cessna de escoles de vol que varen fer fallida ja fa anys, com ara Top Fly o Tadair. Però també destaca per mida el Fairchild Swearinger Metroliner, que crec també era de Top Fly, fins el 2012.

 

=============================================

 

Picture taken with my Ihagee VP Exakta, made c.1933, with re-spooled Ilford HP5+ 400 film to 127 format.

 

At the southern end of Sabadell airport is a fenced area with abandoned aircraft scrap. It is mostly made up of Mooneys and Cessnas from flight schools that went bankrupt years ago, such as Top Fly or Tadair.

 

But by size the largest is this single Fairchild Swearinger Metroliner, probably abandoned here since 2012.

Euphorbia punicea is a species of euphorb commonly known as Jamaican poinsettia. It was first described by Olof Peter Swartz in his Nova genera et species plantarum seu prodromus. It grows as a bush or tree three to five meters (10-to 16 ft) tall, and sometimes much taller. The false flower is in fact a cyathium (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyathium) surrounded by large, colorful bracts.

Live oak - the Fairchild Oak is one of the largest live oak trees in the south of Florida. The tree is 70 feet tall and its limbs stretch out to 300 feet across. The ancient tree is estimated to be 400 to 600 years old. The botanist David Fairchild, whose name is well-known in Florida because of the botanic garden in Coral Gables, admired this tree and, in 1955, it was named after him.

It grows next to Bulow Creek in Bulow Creek State Park, Florida.

Har to imagine this piece of junk ever flew and what is that odd looking pod on top - air conditioning?

On short finals to land at Prestwick airport, Scotland is this USAF Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II from the 107th fighter wing part of the Michigan air national guard. This is one of 12 to arrive ahead of a large exercise in Europe.

 

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin-turbofan, straight-wing, subsonic attack aircraft developed by Fairchild Republic for the United States Air Force. In service since 1976, it is named for the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, but is commonly referred to as the "Warthog" or simply "Hog". The A-10 was designed to provide close air support to friendly ground troops by attacking armored vehicles, tanks, and other enemy ground forces; it is the only production-built aircraft designed solely for CAS to have served with the U.S. Air Force.

This bridge used to be visible from the ground but years of tree growth has all but hidden it from view without the use of a drone that is.
