Here you can see the moment when they caught the aresstor. Successful wheels up landing of F-111C at Royal Australian Air Force base Amberley.
Pilot, Flying Officer Peter Komar
Navigator, Flight Lieutenant Luke Warner
The aircraft lost one main wheel during take off and it was decided the safest method to land was with the complete undercarriage retracted. The arrestor hook system was successfully employed to stop the aircraft.
Crane Hooks - I never really know what is going to catch my eye when I head out with my camera. The one thing I always look for is light and, this morning, the light of the fresh sunrise was hitting these "Crane Hooks". Taken at Indian River Inlet in Sussex County, DE.

Sky Hook container handling craft were once a common sight. Swarms would weave their ways amongst the stacks at orbital cargo ports. Automation saw the gradual replacement of Sky Hooks and other, similar, human-piloted ships.
However, they can still be seen today. Sky hooks can often be spotted, working in less technologically developed facilities, far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the galaxy.

Play features include an easy to remove canopy to swap the pilot and an opening hatch on the back the ship. This accesses the working winch, which has a working grab, compatible with all Galactic Equivalent Units (GEUs).
Photo background from the NASA archive and the hook logo was originally a photo on the Petzl website.
Hook Head Lighthouse, County Wexford, Ireland.
Hook Head is the oldest lighthouse in Ireland, and one of the oldest in Europe still operating. In the 5th century St Dubhan set up a fire beacon on the headland as a warning to mariners. After his death his monks kept the beacon going for another 600 years. Between 1170 and 1184 the Normans built the present lighthouse. It was built from local limestone and burned lime mixed with ox’s blood. Even today traces of the blood-lime mix can be seen coming through the paintwork. The walls are 9 to 13 feet thick and 80 feet above the ground.

The title refers to the 0-6-0 steam loco known as Cranford not Pete and Andy ;-)
The afternoon run around Scunthorpe steelworks is just about to get underway as the driver does his final checks before hooking up to the guards vans.
This old rusted hook was screwed into a blue wooden fence post or something of that nature, and had bits of ivy covering it.
Spotted this improvised horseshoe hook on a truck the other day and thought it was too cool not to take a picture of it.
