Just saw four PC-9s flying over Perth at medium altitude, in two twin's formation. Unfortunately no camera handy (which would have revealed the aircraft!)...

Some mid-sized piston engined twin Cherokee or somat just flew over. Had red trim. Tried to get a snap.

More pics of the slick on a stick outside Dandenong RSL as requested by the Cap'n.

It's got Australian paint on one side and US on the other.

We should start a war memorial thread. There's a great one about 30 miles from my house with a Huey "dustoff" picking up a wounded soldier. We've had several examples here and it would be great to have a place for them.

Or a Gate Guardian thread.

Anyway, a C-130 and KC-10 were doing touch and goes at ACY on my way home from classes last night, and a pair of rotary things went wocka wocka wocka fast and low over the house, late last night. Didn't sound like Coast Guard Dolphins out of CGAS Atlantic City.

I could go for the gate guard war memorial thread

Just start one up and see what happens ---

Great Huey pics, thanks ! Very poignant indeed. Love the twin-scheme, and she sure looks to
Be in good shape. The bronze men are nice as well.

I like the idea of a gate guard, monuments and
Memorial thread. Bought there was one already tho ?

I did some searching and ran through the forum with no results. When I get some good pics of the one on the way home from work I'll post them. Too stink'n cold and everything is covered in snow. It'll be a few weeks.

Captain Canada · February 22, 2015, 03:08:09 PM

I had a box of pics that were of monuments and memorials....I'll have to dig it out.
