| Looks like you hit your target in that picture after the Norden Bombsite pic  Great photos, wish I could get a chance to do something like that, as does everyone else on the board!

| very interesting series of photos, thanks for sharing.... is that you in the cockpit of a FW190? Where is this aircraft located and will it be a static display or a flyer? |

| and here is my two favorites that i ahev framed on my wall..forgive me for posting these..i never had the guts to go public with the earlier.. the first PUBLIC VIEW is how most people see a aircraft at a airshow.. and that is a nice girl sitting there on the cowling.. the second i call PILOT`S VIEW..and it shows you all the advatages one has when beeing able to get in a cockpit..  hope i havent offended anybody with these two pictures.. i took them nay years ago..never shared them and the only ones who has seen them are those that has visited me..

| Great pics! I can only imagine the flight in a C-130 back to the states. The longest I have flown in one was 4 hours and that sucked enough.

| You should have had someone start turning that big old prop from the bottom as they sat up there. Bet it would have made them jump off in a hurry, that is after you snapped that view from the cockpit picture P.S. Looks like whomever took the first picture caught you in the act of taking your pilots view picture
