#USArmy #USAF #ColdWar #avgeek #FridayMorning - The venerable Lockheed C-130 Hercules first flew August 23, 1954 (68 years ago). 2,500+ built since, all in Marietta, Cobb County, Georgia at the Lockheed plant up the street from me.

#AvGeek #Aviation #Airplanes #planespotting: The Beechcraft Heritage Museum in mid-Tennessee preserves each model of Beechcraft from 1932 to present. Beechcraft stunningly embody the apex of biplane aerodynamic streamlining and so much more avant-garde design.

#avgeek #aviation #WW2 #technology: Heinkel He 162 a most fascinating WWII project. Jets permit a small airframe with massive power. The 162 went from drawing board to production in 6 months. Vs Bf 109G-6, He-162 was ~33% lighter, 50% faster and 35% faster climbing with a similar range and ceiling!

#Arson? Long Island, New York #FEMA #wildfires #fires #avgeek: Hamptons... Incredible photo from Twitter's @LI_Weather516 shows smoke consuming Suffolk County PD and the north of the Francis S. Gabreski Airport. Gabreski was a WWII P-47 ace (top US ETO ace) AND a Korean War jet ace.

#Arson? Long Island, New York #wildfire #wildfires #fires Hamptons... Fire location maps. Note Sunrise Highway closure. Flanders Road bypass open. @noaa.gov @nws.noaa.gov forecast high risk of fire this morning. Trump and Elon Musk / DOGE want to fire @climate.noaa.gov, air traffic controllers, etc.

#planecrash #AA5342 #Potomac #BlackHawk: The tragic US Army UH-60L Blackhawk PAT25 + American Airlines flight 5342 Washington DC collision with 67 dead makes me wonder why would a nearly invisible charcoal gray UH-60 from Fort Belvoir, VA be .5 miles from an airport within a landing path at night?

#planecrash #AA5342: #USArmy UH-60 #BlackHawk #PAT25 hit American Airlines flight 5342 from Wichita to Washington Reagan. 64 on jet + 3 on helo. All 67 dead. First US civilian jet crash in 16 years is days after Trump shreds the FAA. “NOT GOOD”, he says.

Yesterday, Boom Supersonic's XB-1's became the first American civilian supersonic aircraft ever, reopening us to future supersonic passenger travel. Who else is excited about this or wants to go supersonic one day? #SpaceX #AvGeek #XB1 #Concorde #Avgeek Tag: Soviet Union, France, UK!
