    The B-17 wheels up landing in 12 o’clock high was done especially for the movie.
    Guess they had a couple ’17s to spare back then

    oookey…
    and what exactly has the A380 to do with Herr Hitlers birthday??
    Should we shut down everything just because some phsyco dictator was born that day??
    What about Stalins birthday?? Or Himmler? Or Mengele?

    Where does it end??

    It’s a fairly normal occurence. The surfaces are aerodynamically balanced..so they will go back to being symmetric when they get airflow going on take off.

    KLM 747 lining up. Perimeter fence in front. The funny thing is, the fence is a lot lower on the approach end than at any other point around the field. Got to give them hot shotting plank drivers more room I guess 😀 :diablo: :diablo:

    The Dutch prime minister flew in on this Fokker. Nice little machine.

    Just kidding of course…all respect to fixed wingers out there.
