ANZAC DAY and Aussies!
Actually Kev, I’m very proud of my German heritage!, But I guess I am proud of who I am! I tell my daughters, never forget your family history- their mother is of Italian descent and hates everything I do!
I appreciate your idea, but naming a plane “##### Smith” doesn’t really appeal to me, Aussies will know what I’m talking about! But that’s something to think about!
ANZAC Day is the 25th of April, and I’m honourd by your thoughts!
Which country are you in?

RE: My Colours!
Close Kev, it stands for “Smart Transit System”, basically a smart idea from a smart guy, as opposed to the dumb transit system that is currently in place! Private bus companies that the drivers make the times if and when the bus will arrive.
Trains that keep getting cancelled cause the driver spilt his coffee!
And a ferry service that is there when the other left cause they sold the business after making it so well known!
The Airline is just the first step in what I hope to build up to become a reputable “reliable” service!
As for naming the Aircraft, How about Thunderbird 1? hahahahahaha!
Actually, I love the Space Shuttles, STS is just a play on that as well… each shuttle mission is designated STS-xxx, thus I used the same idea, but avoided legal troubles by changing it’s meaning as well! So maybe I could name the planes after each Pilot of the Shuttle missions? What do you think?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 16-03-02 AT 05:59 AM (GMT)]Kev: Haven’t decided fully but the GA-8 Airvan is looking good, just looking into the AOC and RPT certs now, should this fall through, it will be the PAC-750XT from New Zealand, to start off with which is the first pic! As for the bigger stuff, still evaluating candidates, I finaly found the email address for Antanov, and they have welcomed my inquiry, can’t wait to see what they send me on the An-38-100!
I’ve had a poor responce from EADS regarding the CASA 212 Aviocar, which is the second pic! The number on the tail will be relivant to each aircraft, sorta like the Thunderbirds. I feel that this is a good visual aid for people to take important photos, and in the event that it ever happens, identify which a/c has gone down (Grim but realistic). I’m really tempted to go for the SU-80, but the AN-38 holds a soft spot in my mind, so I’ll wait to see what they send me!

Doing away with landing gear!
I suppose it could be done, I mean now we have the Harrier and the Osprey! All we need to do is work on a way to land the things on the ground without too much damage occuring to the plane!

I know alot of Polish people down here, my Uncle is Polish a Guy that I used to go to for computer stuff is polish (His Wife is very nice, but unfortunately married 🙁 ). I have two ICQ contacts from Poland, one in Krackow, the other in Gdansk! Gdansk or as it was originally known Danzig, was the home of my family for many years, and only when my Grandfather was born did they move to Germany proper, bugger 🙁

The Shorts SD330 has three tanks, one in each wing streching out from the engine nacells to the tips, and the third on the center section, coming just short of the engine nacells on the inside!

RE: Stuka pix
Very nice, wasn’t one supposed to be returning to A/w condition? How many are left in the world, last I heard (a few years ago admittedly), only one was still around and that was in a Pommy museum.

RE: A couple of rare pics I found!
Thanks Uncle, if memory serves weren’t they looking into ways of reducing aircraft costs and weights by any means nessasary, and since the landing gear is the heaviest and most often the first bit of a plane that wears out they thought of ways to get rid of it! Wasn’t this part of that trials scheeme?
