Thanks, Vader2... I can't claim any of the work, though. The 924th was my Dad's unit and all I did was provide some photos. The work was done by Tiwaz (original template) and CowboyK (adaptation). Cheers! -

These are 1600x1200... taken with a Canon Powershot A540. No contact sheet is available yet, but if you see one you like here (half size, not the full collection), look for the corresponding file name. I've appended the aircraft description to the file name on the full size shots. Enjoy! Files are here. UPDATE: Image Indexes are posted in the respective folders. Alternatively, for easy viewing, they are here, as well. Early Years - Page 1 - Page 2 - Page 3 Cold War - Page 1 - Page 2 - Page 3 - Page 4 Modern - Page 1 - Page 2 - Page 3 Experimental - Page 1 - Page 2 Presidential - Page 1 Since I haven't been able to offer much to this talented community, I wanted to at least share these images. Cheers!

Thanks, Boom. Amazingly enough, I needed only one. I bought a 1GB SD card at Best Buy for $29 and had room to spare. I was also surprised at the number of photos I managed to pull off with a single set of batteries. At 6 MP, 1200x1600 in superfine resolution with flash and lcd active, I managed 380 shots before I had to change batteries.

Thanks, Gerald. Since this was my first trip, I couldn't tell what has been added, nor when. Feedback from others suggests that they've made significant changes in recent years (including the addition of the 'Cold War' hangar as a separate exhibit). The numbers I saw showed that they have more than 300 aircraft in the collection, over 180 of which are on display. Also, old pictures I've seen suggest they move things around occasionally.

OT- What if the A-10 lost?
rabid_raptor posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
As much of an aviation buff as I am, I had never considered that there was ever any competition for the A-10's design (need identified, airplane built, need filled, right? Wrong) I'm sure others here are familiar with the history, but I wasn't aware of the competing design. Here is a set of photos of the YA-9, the principal competition for the A-10's line of work when the need was identified. I gotta wonder what kind of tank killer it would have been. -

I exhausted all my Internet sleuth skills on this one and came up with nuts. However, I've posted a request for help on alt.binaries.pictures.aviation, so hopefully, someone out there's got something that'll work. -
