"The TURKISH STARS are the Turkish Air Force Team and perform their high octane displays with "eight" supersonic NF-5 aircraft, at speeds varying from 200 Knots to 520 Knots (370km/h-960km/h) and with only 1 meter between each jet and G-forces up to G5."

A pair of US Navy E/A18G Growlers flying during the Growler demo at the 2025 Abbotsford Airshow. It was loud and the pilots didn't hold back. I can still hear the afterburners when I look at these shots.

Fokker DR.1 1 Introduced over the western front in August 1917, the Fokker Triplane soon became the favorite plane of Germany's greatest WWI ace, Baron Manfred von Richthofen
The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is a single-engine, supersonic interceptor aircraft originally developed by Lockheed for the United States Air Force. One of the Century Series of aircraft, it was operated by the air forces of more than a dozen nations from 1958 to 2004. Its design team was led by Kelly Johnson, who went on to lead or contribute to the development of the SR-71 Blackbird and other Lockheed aircraft.

PYRO is a 1982 International Transtar 4300 powered by a Westinghouse J34-WE-48 Turbojet engine with afterburner from a T-2 Buckeye. The engine has a single spool, 11 stage axial flow compressor and a 2 stage axial flow turbine. The J34 produces 10,000 HP with 6,000 lbs of thrust. PYRO is capable of reaching speeds of over 250 mph, and burns 40 gallons of fuel per run! PYRO proves that the lack of aerodynamics can be offset with intense thrust.
If PYRO’s flaming afterburner isn’t enough, it has been equipped with flame throwing exhaust stacks. These stacks operate both on propane and nitrogen propelled diesel. This high octane combination allows PYRO to boast one of the most impressive fire displays in the world.
PYRO brings the heat! Fire breathing, flame farting, PYRO jet truck, the hottest ticket in town, both show and go!

Still not finish as it shoud be.
During a find in an old dump in Malta, an F4 surfaced, with the main compass platform mounted on the rh side of airframe. We found the same in our airframe. If this is related to a repair shop, production diferences or spesial equipmen is yet not nown.
Darnit, again, kicking myself for not bringing my tripod along (they are allowed in the Museum); you'll hear that a lot. This plane I liked a great deal due to its flashy paint and, frankly, general cute factor (sorry, gentlemen—I like fast-moving machinery, but I'm still a woman!).
According to the Museum's website, the P-26A was very important in fighter plane development, because it was the US Army Air Corps' first all metal monoplane fighter. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-1340 with 500 hp, the maximum speed is 234 mph—faster than earlier planes because the metal is lighter than wood and even fabric biplanes.
Peashooters were typically armed with two .30-cal or one .50 cal and one .30 cal machine gun (oooo, give me the latter!) and could carry 200 pounds of bombs I don't know where—this is a pretty small ship (23'10" long, 10'5" high, with a 27'11.5" wingspan). FWIW, .50-cal anything is not a 'pea' in my book, but hey, what do I know?
