Great pictures of the Ekranoplane, looks as though they are producing a diorama giving the impression of flight within ground effect, right?
Nope, east to Incirlik or Antalya, 😉
Well, how do you explain?:confused:

When you weren’t looking, it turned west and went to McGuire AFB, NJ and after that, it went south to Charleston, SC.!:D
A timely reminder of the consequences following a fatal accident. There are always untold stories behind the headlines that tend to get overlooked.
Probably be one of these then!:)

Great photos, presumably Supertanker wasn’t on its way to Greece, it was operating in its freighter capacity?:)

Great information and photos thanks, don’t think the DC-6 will be going to N.Z. will it?:D
Good news travels slowly to some areas!:D
Some still pictures of the accident, not pleasant viewing. R.I.P.:(

Honest question, can a see plane land on land? 😮
A seaplane can land on grass successfully, saw one once at Popham. Below is another Caravan operation but in different weather!
Er… I think Globespan invited Zoom UK to operate some of their long haul flights, owing to the difficulty they were having with their equipment… Could be wrong but I think that’s what’s happening… ?
That would be a logical explanation as I can’t find any other reference to this new service. Research indicates that the U.S. are not or were not happy with Zoom’s routes to the U.S. from the U.K. due to the assumed Canadian ownership.
My information is that the landing has stressed twenty frames of the aircraft and this will be the dilemma in deciding whether it can undergo a one-off ferry flight to a maintenance facility.
