Vintage shots from days gone by!

Only thing I know is - it ain't Kansas!

Yup. Raymond Loewy came up with that when he designed the sheet metal for the "styled" Farmalls. The F30 morphed into the M, the F20 became the H, etc.

There was more involved than hanging sheetmetal off an F20 and calling it an H, but the ancestry is definitely there.

 

The Air Museum in McMinnville, OR., the "Home of the Spruce Goose" also has an SR-71 on display for up close viewing. The cost of the private tour of the Spruce Goose is definitely worth the extra dough.

 

Thx Jim. Yeah most but not all are archived in the LOC; it has thousands of images. No specific areas though, I just tailor my searches using buzz words or phrases. I also scan & post a few pics.

The rest are - well....trade secrets , after all, half the fun is in the hunt, eh?

 

O.K., thanks Wingnutz, I thought that was what you had meant about the F-102. When I first went into the U.S.A.F.,I was stationed with a F-100 outfit, in munitions and weapons maintenance, but at the end of my enlistment, was with the F-105 Thunderchief's. Russ

 

I agree .
