rplace Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 New view from the work station. Looks strangely small in the picture but it's 20x24. Bonus points if you can name the carrier upper left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm somewhere below deck but above the water line when that picture was taken. 8 minutes ago, Schu said: I see Tomcats... so it's older, right?

jimjimbo Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Ranger? Constellation? Midway? Island is hard to make out. I only see one E-2 which is normally where they were parked. AT1 (NAC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't think it would take @jimjimbo long to join the fun. Another hint. Sadly towed out to sea in an undisclosed place and torpedoed and bombed to see what it actually takes to sink a super carrier. IIRC, the only super carrier ever sunk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF-102 (my squadron) took the picture with a camera system that mounts to the bottom of an F-14 where one of the missiles typically goes. I "tasked" the photo lab to make an enlargement spanning 3 11x14 prints. I spent the better part of my 12 hour shift cutting, sanding, lining up the three photos and gluing it up. Today it would just be a couple of mouse click. Given everything that went into that photo it probably cost the taxpayers 10 grand. Just another fun day floating around the Med. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me again, I´ve seen A4´s during my time in Texas. Seeinng how they are dwarfed by the F14 in that picture, what enormous plane the Tomcat must have been.

uteman1011 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Won this in an auction yesterday ($42). I needed something to test speakers in my garage work area. I've got the KR-3090 as well. Great little receivers! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

314carpenter Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 47 more added today. I need to put together an accurate count and a full list, but I'm up to about 175 original theatrical posters covering the past 50 years. No fakes, all from solid sources to ensure authenticity. Only started collecting them this month. Pretty good start though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
