Question Missile along the flight deck

Help - Sometime ago there was an picture on the military pages of a plane landing on an US carrier flight deck and one of the missiles had come loose. The images were of people (understandably) running away.
I am looking for the source of those images.
I had it as a background on my laptop and stupidly believed the technician who upgraded my laptop that everything would be copied !.
Any ideas where I can find it again ?
Thanks...POMPI

Pompi,

Oops - I copied it: Windows XP seems to let you do this (it let me do so). Never saw the right-click message that appears!

But - try:

http://209.133.73.64/TPC/Funny_Pictu...6/TPC_0106.htm

instead. This seems to have no restrictions.

Pompi,

Doubt very much that the owner of that web page has copyright on a photo taken on a US carrier!

Just save the page "as is" in MS Explorer and each photo will be downloaded as a separate jpg in the directory.
