Greetings to all .... Does anyone have any .jpgs of the Embraer ERJ-145 cockpit ? Thank you! -- Phil

I watched a documentary on telly the other evening about the earth's atmosphere. The presenter was taken to 50,000ft and beyond in what looked a lot like a lightning, which amazed me as I'd assumed there weren't any still flying. If I'm right, then how many are still flying, and when/where can...

I have a buddy who is building an RC Mosquito FB Mk VI with the flat windscreen, and we are looking for good pictures so we can get the framing and shape right. Does anybody have dretailed pictures, possibly from the De Havilland Museum or the Australian War Memorial, that they can post? Many...

2007 was not the best year in the UK for plane spotting at low level. The poor weather through the summer and the general lack of military aircraft in the country made this years results poor, both in terms of quantity and quality but I did get some great shots and I will be back next year. I...
