Big Brother
Your photo of Duggy “sniffing” the C-5 [in this edition of “POTW”] reminded me of the attached photo taken on the ramp at Rhine-Main Air Base in Frankfurt, Germany in the early 1970s. I was privileged to head the crew that flew this C-47D/44-76671 from Rhine-Main to Kelly Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas to install it in the Lackland Airmen & Heritage Museum.

Mosquito Aircraft Restoration, Auckland, New Zealand
While visiting Ardmore Air Field in New Zealand, I was lucky to be invited to have a look around the Mosquito workshop, where it was just finished being rebuilt. This is the world’s only WWII-era Mosquito bomber capable of flying and will be at Oshkosh [in 2013]. Unfortunately, I only had my phone to take the photos.
