Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Voting for Baatfam's shot of the Pink Floyd memorial.

I often ask my wife for help voting, and we both got a kick out of Dave Redman's monumental befuddlement.
 
Saturday Morning

Had an interesting array of pics.

My vote tally:

Keerfunk 4, Trevor 5,
and Agemax, baatfam, Redman 1 each.

Would be good for someone to verify.

Ok guys...thanks for the votes!

This week's theme is "Aviation"... interpret that anyway you like.

 
This is all I have. Taken in the local air museum parking lot!

Actually, if you look really close, you can see the top of a Kalitta Charters plane and of course, the airport tower.

Municipal Airport nearby has this static display.

(Not the entry)

Ah,,, that pic is kinda small and dark, I got some others.

IF you want to know what it is:
//////////////QUOTE
Along the driveway, there is a static display of a USAFF-100 Super Sabre jet, painted in USAF Thunderbird colors, in 1969.[SUP][2][/SUP] The jet was refurbished the summer of 2016 by local Grand Haven Aviation Association Members.

The North American F-100 Super Sabre is an American supersonic jet fighter aircraft that served with the United States Air Force (USAF) from 1954 to 1971 and with the Air National Guard (ANG) until 1979. The first of the Century Series of USAF jet fighters, it was the first USAF fighter capable of supersonic speed in level flight.[SUP][4][/SUP] The F-100 was designed by North American Aviation as a higher performance follow-on to the F-86 Sabre air superiority fighter.[SUP][5][/SUP]
/////////////ENDQUOTE



This web site has info about that plane and lists history and where can find others

Hey Mr Roger Burque
THere is a F100 on static display kinda near you, at USS Bullhead park.

**************
Have stopped there at other times, in different lighting, for different poses.

Here is one that I think I used on a previous similar, if not same, theme. (so not the entry either)

Here is a different pose.
This will be my entry.

Came up on a little (only three planes of which one was buried in tall grass) airport this afternoon on my way to see a set of falls. The pilot was just starting his pre-flight checks and was nice enough to let me take this shot.

Airplane Pic of Week by Scott Baker, on Flickr
 
This is one that I took about twelve years ago. I'm trying to find the original so that I can bring out the colors a little. I think it's on my Mac but my Mac died a couple weeks ago but for now this will have to do.
