A DM based 23rd TASS OA-10A undergoing the preservation process at the AMARC arrivals area in July 1992.
The plastic spraylat coating has been applied to the canopy and the black undercoat can be seen covering the engine intakes.
23rd TASS OA-10As were used in the Forward Air Controller role and saw action in Operation Desert Storm. OA-10s are no different to 'standard' A-10s, the designation refers to the a/c's role rather than equipment fit.
The scan of this print did not work as well as I wanted it to but this is one of my fav landscape pics, taken from the dirt road running behind the Langeberg Mountains, past Tradouw towards Heidelberg. The "sheep" on the hill are actually rocks; the colours are all distorted because of the cross processing.

Information is quoted from the Historic Environment Record for H BUILDING, Malvern, UK
The building, having military purposes and designated locally as H building, sits on a former Government Research site in Malvern, Worcestershire at Grid Ref SO 786 447. This site was the home of the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) from 1946. It has been owned by QinetiQ since 2001 and is in the process (October 2017 to February 2018) of being sold for redevelopment.
This unique building has at its heart a ‘Rotor’ bunker with attached buildings to house radar screens and operators as well as plant such as emergency generators. Twenty nine Rotor operational underground bunkers were built in great urgency around Britain to modernise the national air defence network, following the Soviet nuclear test in 1949. Two factors make H building’s construction and purpose unique; this prototype is the only Rotor bunker built above ground and it was the home to National Air Defence government research for 30 years.This example of a ROTOR bunker is unique instead of being buried, it was built above ground to save time and expense, as it was not required to be below ground for its research purpose.
H Building was the prototype version of the Rotor project R4 Sector Operations Centre air defence bunkers. Construction began in August 1952 with great urgency - work went on 24 hours a day under arc lights. The main bunker is constructed from cross bonded engineering bricks to
form walls more than 2 feet thick in a rectangle approximately 65ft x 50ft. The two internal floors are suspended from the ceiling. The original surrounding buildings comprise, two radar control and operator rooms, offices and machine plant.
The building was in generally good order and complete. The internal layout of the bunker remains as originally designed. The internal surfaces and services have been maintained and modernised over the 55 years since its construction (Figure 3). The first floor has been closed over.
There are some later external building additions around the periphery to provide additional accommodation.
In parts of the building the suspended floor remains, with 1950s vintage fittings beneath such as patch panels and ventilation ducts.
The building has been empty since the Defence Science & Technology Laboratories [Dstl] moved out in October 2008
As lead for radar research, RRE was responsible for the design of both the replacement radars for the Chain Home radars and the command and control systems for UK National Air Defence.
Project Rotor was based around the Type 80 radar and Type 13 height finder. The first prototype type 80 was built at Malvern in 1953 code named Green Garlic. Live radar feeds against aircraft sorties, were fed into the building to carry out trials of new methods plotting and reporting air activity
A major upgrade of the UK radar network was planned in the late 1950s – Project ‘Linesman’ (military) / ‘Mediator’ (civil) – based around Type 84 / 85 primary radars and the HF200 height finder. A prototype type 85 radar (Blue Yeoman) was built adjacent to H Building in 1959. live radar returns were piped into H Building.
Subsequently a scheme to combine the military and civil radar networks was proposed. The building supported the research for the fully computerised air defence scheme known as Linesman, developed in the 1960s, and a more integrated and flexible system (United Kingdom Air Defence Ground Environment or UKADGE) in the 1970s.
The building was then used for various research purposes until the government relinquished the main site to QinetiQ in 2001. Government scientists continued to use the building until 2008. Throughout its life access was strictly controlled by a dedicated pass sytem.
Notable civil spin-offs from the research in this building include the invention of touch screens and the whole UK Civil Air Traffic Control system which set the standard for Europe.
Chronology
1952 - Construction work is begun. The layout of the bunker area duplicates the underground version built at RAF Bawburgh.
1953 - Construction work is largely completed.
1954 - The building is equipped and ready for experiments.
1956-1958 - Addition of 2nd storey to offices
1957-1960 - Experiments of automatic tracking, novel plot projection systems and data management and communications systems tested.
1960-1970 - Project Linesman Mediator experiments carried out including a novel display technique known as a Touch screen ( A World First)
TOUCHSCREEN
A team led by Eric Johnson in H building at Malvern. RRE Tech Note 721 states: This device, the Touch Sensitive Electronic Data Display, or more shortly the ‘Touch Display’, appears to have the potential to provide a very efficient coupling between man and machine. (E A Johnson 1966). See also patent GB 1172222.
Information From Hugh Williams/mraths
1980-1990 - During this period experiments are moved to another building and H building is underused.
1990-1993 - The building was re-purposed and the bunker (room H57) had the first floor closed over to add extra floor area.
2008- The bunker was used until late 2008 for classified research / Joint intelligence centre

Some of my buddies heard I was processing film in my underwear and they requested a photo (of course). Since I'm more than a little bit of a smart-ass this is what they got. :p
Early in the render process. Probably too much red. After a few hundred frames, I think the red is going to overwhelm. Whatev. I will let it ride.
Read about it here.
The Case of the Found Slide Film
We went to New Jersey for Halloween. This is were we were given an Argus camera that was recently found in a garage cleaning. It is a very solid camera, more boxy than my Kodak Signet 40. They were certainly built to last back in the day.
When we popped it open, we found a used roll of film.
“Whoa, do you think we could develop this?”
After a little research, (reading the canister, mostly), the film is ANSCOCHROME and yes, it sounds more interesting if it is in all capital letters. What we know is that it was slide film (I’m actually not sure how we figured that out). It is probably 30 years old. And that it is probably color (chrome gives it away). It has 12 photos from the past and I want them.
I brought it into Freestyle where they in turn sent it to Swan Photo Lab, who I was confident could at least diagnose what it is. If they couldn’t handle it, I knew we’d be one step closer to figuring this out.
Yesterday, I got the film back.
This is what we found out: it does not use E6 but E4 processing and they do not do it. Fair enough. It’s tungsten type film (says on the canister) and that does mean that it is color. Also on the canister: ”Only open in total darkness. Process in 80 F chemistry.” That means little of anything to me, but this may be the key to deciphering the processing/developing type.
It also caused a good laugh in the store about warming up chemicals and putting it in. ”Do you guys have any bleach? Let’s put it in that!”
A google search in store said that one of the differences between E6 and E4 processing is that a hardener is added to the process. Nowadays, slide film has a hardener added to it in manufacturing, according to Freestyle peeps. I expect that this information will be corroborated once I…

"Les dix ans de Processing"

I found a cool new website on another Flickr contact stream and thought I'd give the presets a try. I'm digging the "cross processed" action. Check it out www.picnik.com/. A little bump in contrast in Lightroom as well.
Off to Wisconsin tomorrow.
