Do you have that AC-130 in any higher resolution?  That has to be the most interesting angle I've ever seen of that particular aircraft.

MSNBC posted a nice slide-show of pix from Farnborough.  I can't manage to hotlink to the slides, so I took the liberty of downloading them all, and I repost them here for your enjoyment.

Farnborough Part 3:

787 Dreamliner


787 Cockpit


Phantom Ray UCAV (looks a lot like Taranis from this angle)


Red Arrows with Vulcan


By the way, if anyone can figure out a way to post the slideshow link here, I'll pull these down.  I don't want to get into any sort of copyright fight.

Anyone want to know what the wing folding control linkage for a EA-6B Prowler looks like?

Looks like someone forgot to put the cover back on the right wing before take off   :banghead:


Also, check out the USN's new "Delta model" E-2 Hawkeye, now in Ghost Gray!!!!!!!!!!!!
