MustangsMustangs.net is an AWESOME site. I've had it bookmarked for years. They DO have some sweet pictures there.
My desktop at home doesn't change much...mostly the boys (dogs). My desktop at work changes almost weekly...

Same here Chad. I put up new wallpaper about every other day. I'm at work today and I just put up a cool pic of a Saturn 5 rocket being rolled out of the VAB. Old school

I would imagine if you where sitting in a BF109-E this would be quite a frightening sight!!

Being possibly the only helicopter A&P here, i thought i'd better represent.
I have a 4 ship formation of Mil Mi-24 Hinds doing a flypast, tried to post it here but unsure how to upload. You'll just have to use your imagination, its badass.

P.S. That RV8 looks
HOT . I had kindof convinced myself to go with the 10, but when i see pics like that I WANT ONE! (mine will be a taildrager though)

Leighton, that would be the first -10 TD that I am aware of!
Van hasn't designed one, but I sure would like to see one!

I agree
Anyone know the reasoning behind the different landing gear configuration on the -8 vs. the rest of the RV taildraggers?

Nice jab there Capt.
I meant the 8, but no you mention it, an RV10 taildragger would be kindof cool. Give it retracts, and stick a turbine up front and we'll talk.
