Chao Lao Beach Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) This is the current one from me. It is not a trick. It is western, was used in Thailand, I believe operated by the Thai's RTAF and Americans. 307 were built in total and they varied in their roles significantly. Dancealot, that A340 I posted, details in this post. You are correct with your guess though. The KLM was a Photoshop knockup, bit of s joke. Anyway, you can tell it is not right as the cockpit engines are not to scale Edited July 13, 2013 by Chao Lao Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chao Lao Beach Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Nope, the DHC-4 (click for a pic) was Canadian. This is 100% American. The Thai, Laos and Cambodian Air force also operated it according to Wikipedia, but without a doubt,it was mainly used by the US Air force in this region.

But the aircraft, including the C-123B, were flown by private contractors sometimes under contract of the CIA. Interesting history on it here Air America Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tywais Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 For some reason I cannot show/download a picture of a plane that crashed not far from me in 1980 at an air show in the UK. Was going to tell the story, but it was a B26 Invader. Believe this is the one at Biggin Hill in 1980. http://www.mattseldon.co.uk/invader/ and here http://napoleon130.tripod.com/id510.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinglePot Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 talking of airshows. Most impressive sight (and sound) I've ever heard. British F1 Grand Prix at Brands Hatch just down the road from Biggin Hill, many years ago. Pre race, Vulcan bomber glides down the pit lane at about 200ft. End of the pit lane, full throttle. Almost vertical ascent. Bit like a Bentley Mulsanne on a motorway. Rule Britannia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinglePot Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 when I was a nipper in a village in Berkshire you'd often see warplanes of all descriptions flying over. Vulcans were me favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
