malleable, ductile, crystalline geese

Today's serving: 5 helpings of Anser Stannus: Fokker VII, Ford Trimotor, Boeing 80...okay, so only one is a real tin goose, but never mind...

 

Hope you liked...

Night night!

Oh la la, what a brilliant set of shots!

I especially like #4

Great shots krigl.

Thanks gentlemen for the comments.....

Not many Trimotor fans out there I see... maybe afraid of Bird Flu?  ;)

[Fitter]

They are all good looking planes....extreme good taste specially in #1 and #3

Nice shots Krigl, maybe a bit on the boring side in terms of aircraft, but lovely never the less.

Boring?! Surely not!!! Back in the inter-war years, A-Net was buzzing with heated debate on which plane kicks a$$ the most, and the people who crowded out Boeing Field to see the 80 take to the skies made the A380 event look like a children's party....

That is ever so funny! LMAO

They were state-of-the-art at the time, with better food and more legroom on every flight than nowadays.
 They were slow, but I'd rather take a long ride in an old Tri-Motor than just about any current jetliner.
 I've taken a short ride in a Ford- a bit noisy, but more like real flying. And more civilzed, if you ask me.

Nice screenies, BTW

Blimey! State of the art shots my friend! Lovely scenery!

You know K, #2 is about as good as it gets, the mist, the aircraft textures, the scenery...a really suberb collection here, but #2 made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end...
