Good stuff. You'll get more rewarding circulation for your work at http://www.airliners.net and at http://www.planepictures.net

Very nice work, well done. Thanks for posting them.
:ok: |
Thanks very much for the replies and PM.
GlueBall - I already have more than 1000 shots on a.net, I just figured this may be a good way of getting my stuff to a more specifically relevant audience. ;) Cheers, Karl |
There's still a 133 up there? There were two up there 8 years age. In the two years I was there, only saw one fly one time.
|
MI - Yes, there's still a 133 up there. I don't believe she's flown for a couple of years, but is maintained in airworthy condition. She certainly taxied in 2007. She needs to be operated under a government contract in order to be allowed to take to the skies again. What I'd give to photograph her getting airborne....!
I believe the second example was scrapped in/around 2000. |

The Wiki post could do with an update (like your great photo):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-133_Cargomaster retired in 1971 it says... then lived in Mojave then moved to Alaska. iX |

Isn't the final photo a C133? I'm sure that these photos would be appreciated on the 'Aviation History and Nostalgia' forum on PPRuNe Airclues |

Thanks for the grate pics it nice to see. I have been to Alaska a number of times, to NAC for their 6 sim, when I worked over hear in the UK for a proper flying job and not just being a bus driver as now.
If you have any moor recip pics, as our american cousans call them, bring them on. Bet you cant gess who this is. |
Apologies for the delayed response, all. Only just noticed the thread's come to life. ;)
jumpseat - now you tell me! :{ Where would we have found you? We had visits to Everts and NAC at both Fairbanks and Anchorage. fourgolds - thank you! :ok: ix_touring - indeed it does. Not sure I'm quite qualified enough to be the one to do it though. Captain Airclues - I'll do that if you think they'd be of interest. biggls - are you suggesting I know you? Anyway, a few more: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...s/IMG_7568.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...s/IMG_7515.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...s/IMG_7446.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...r/IMG_0669.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...r/IMG_5718.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/IMG_4943.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/IMG_0485.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...e/IMG_0340.jpg Enjoy! |
