Image by Chris Devers
Quoting Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Lockheed P-38J-10-LO Lightning :
In the P-38 Lockheed engineer Clarence "Kelly" Johnson and his group of designers produced 1 of the most successful twin-engine fighters ever flown by any nation. From 1942 to 1945, U. S. Army Air Forces pilots flew P-38s over Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific, and from the frozen Aleutian Islands to the sun-baked deserts of North Africa. Lightning pilots in the Pacific theater downed more Japanese aircraft than pilots flying any other Allied warplane.
Maj. Richard I. Bong, America’s major fighter ace, flew this P-38J-10-LO on April 16, 1945, at Wright Field, Ohio, to evaluate an experimental technique of interconnecting the movement of the throttle and propeller manage levers. Nevertheless, his correct engine exploded in flight before he could conduct the experiment.

Boeing’s B-29 Superfortress was the most sophisticated propeller-driven bomber of Planet War II and the initial bomber to house its crew in pressurized compartments. Though designed to fight in the European theater, the B-29 discovered its niche on the other side of the globe. In the Pacific, B-29s delivered a assortment of aerial weapons: traditional bombs, incendiary bombs, mines, and two nuclear weapons.
On August 6, 1945, this Martin-built B-29-45-MO dropped the very first atomic weapon used in combat on Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, Bockscar (on display at the U.S. Air Force Museum close to Dayton, Ohio) dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, Japan. Enola Gay flew as the advance weather reconnaissance aircraft that day. A third B-29, The Great Artiste, flew as an observation aircraft on each missions.

Particulars, quoting from Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum: Steven F. Udvar-Hazy | Northrop P-61C Black Widow:
The P-61 Black Widow was the 1st U.S. aircraft made to find and destroy enemy aircraft at night and in bad climate, a feat produced possible by the use of on-board radar. The prototype 1st flew in 1942. P-61 combat operations began just right after D-Day, June six, 1944, when Black Widows flew deep into German airspace, bombing and strafing trains and road targeted traffic. Operations in the Pacific started at about the very same time. By the end of Planet War II, Black Widows had noticed combat in every single theater and had destroyed 127 enemy aircraft and 18 German V-1 buzz bombs.
The Museum’s Black Widow, a P-61C-1-NO, was delivered to the Army Air Forces in July 1945. It participated in cold-climate tests, higher-altitude drop tests, and in the National Thunderstorm Project, for which the prime turret was removed to make room for thunderstorm monitoring gear.

Specifics, quoting from Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird:
No reconnaissance aircraft in history has operated globally in far more hostile airspace or with such comprehensive impunity than the SR-71, the world’s quickest jet-propelled aircraft. The Blackbird’s functionality and operational achievements placed it at the pinnacle of aviation technology developments in the course of the Cold War.
This Blackbird accrued about two,800 hours of flight time for the duration of 24 years of active service with the U.S. Air Force. On its last flight, March 6, 1990, Lt. Col. Ed Yielding and Lt. Col. Joseph Vida set a speed record by flying from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., in 1 hour, 4 minutes, and 20 seconds, averaging 3,418 kilometers (2,124 miles) per hour.

The Pentagon (9.11.01) Memorial
Image by dbking
A Description of the symbolism inside the Pentagon Memorial……
A MEMORIAL PARK is inscribed with 184 MEMORIAL UNITS. Each and every unit is committed to an individual victim – its placement and spot within the collective field a special instance. This highly certain and qualitatively objective organizational technique yields seemingly random outcomes. The field is organized as a timeline of the victims’ ages, spanning from Dana Falkenberg, 3 years old, to John D. Yamnicky, age 71. Although each memorial unit locates itself on its respective age line, the units are then organized by birth date along the age line. Inherent tendencies – the clustering of specific age groups, the gap among the children and adults – are clearly evident and meaningful, although infinitely interpretive.
Private interpretation is further sparked by embedding layers of specificity into the orientation of each and every memorial unit inside the expansive web site. Fifty-nine memorial units face one particular direction, 125 face the other – as a result distinguishing victims on board American Airlines Flight 77 from those who had been inside the Pentagon. When going to a memorial committed to a victim who was in the Pentagon, the visitor will see their engraved name and the Pentagon in the very same view. Conversely, one would see the engraved name of a victim on Flight 77 with the sky. Although extremely particular, this distinction is really subtle when deployed regularly throughout the web site. It adds a level of difference to the visual and spatial field, therefore provoking visitors’ curiosity, although simultaneously telling the story of those involved in the events that took place here that day.
Elegant in its self-supporting kind, the memorial unit is at after a glowing light pool, a cantilevered bench and a place for the permanent inscription of every single victim’s name. Employing Laptop Numerically Controlled (CNC) technologies typical to the aerospace market, the cast duplex stainless steel memorial unit is easily mass-made and extremely articulate. Its structural cross-section not only reflects radiant light from the glowing pool of water onto the surrounding gravel field, but also permits that fields to be continuous. A polymer concrete utilizing the identical gravel aggregate located on the ground is poured into the memorial unit, seemingly “freezing” the gravel in spot and floating it above the light pool. This surface is polished smooth to attain a “terrazzo” finish. As the memorial unit grows out of the ground, the stabilized gravel field is interrupted only by moments of glowing light and water, and the engraved names float above these moments.
Though loose sufficient to hear and really feel footsteps upon it, stabilized gravel is a hard, ADA-compliant surface. Disbursed all through the complete website, the porous stabilized gravel field is contained within two perimeter benches that serve as planters for ornamental grasses. These grasses act as a soft screen demarcating the boundary of the memorial park. Further, the combined length of the perimeter benches plus the bench portion of each and every memorial unit supplies more than two,100 linear feet of seating surface. Birth years, utilized to find the age lines, are inlaid stainless steel numbers set flush with the finished horizontal surface of the perimeter benches. The birth years are flanked by the stainless steel age lines that permeate the whole internet site.
The western edge of the site is defined with the AGE WALL – a wall that “grows” in height one inch per year relative to the age lines that organize the site at big. As one moves deeper into the website the wall gets higher – it grows from 3 inches above the perimeter bench (at Dana’s memorial age-line) to 71 inches above the bench (at John’s). Strategically, this wall grows as a barrier is required among the memorial park and the delivery lane that encroaches upon the web site at its northwestern edge. Experientially, this wall communicates the organizational technique to the drivers passing by on the freeway, while still enabling them to peer into the site from afar. From within the internet site it supplies a shadowy backdrop for the lacy ornamental grasses that are planted along its base.
A vivid canopy of colour and light gives shade all through the web site, as trees are clustered in conjunction with the disbursement of memorial units. Numerous Maple species, specially the Paperbark Maple (Acer griseum) serve this scheme nicely. The Paperbark is one of the last Maples to drop their leaves, retaining their beautiful fall foliage properly into the winter months – this suspension of time will contribute to the sublime beauty of the Park. Upon maturity, the cinnamon-colored bark starts to exfoliate, exhibiting exquisite texture and colour and all round year-round interest. On an intimate level, the interplay amongst leaves, light, bark, gravel, grasses, water, and the senses will be greatly enhanced with these sophisticated trees.
Take my Lightning but Don’t Steal my Thunder – Covent Garden
Image by Dave Pearce (London)
This surreal stunt is the function of 30-year-old artist Alex Chinneck, master of architectural illusion, who has previously turned buildings upside down, pulled off their facades, and let them slither down in a heap on the pavement. A Uri Geller of bricks and mortar, this is 1 of his most ambitious functions yet, fabricating an imaginary eastern entrance to the market hall that he’s then torn in half and jacked aloft, its Portland stone columns and granite walls left brutally severed.
“I wanted to play on the theatricality of this area, and make some thing physically extraordinary,” he says. In location for the subsequent 3 weeks, it is currently attracting crowds of gawping passers-by, as a visually arresting one particular-liner, seemingly made for the Instagram era.
The illusion of weightlessness is created feasible by a lot of polystyrene and 16 tonnes of steel. A 12-metre armature hidden inside the structure is connected to the ground by way of an innocuous marketplace cart, in which a 6-tonne counterweight stops it all from toppling more than. The effect of weathered stonework has been immaculately recreated by Richard Nutbourne and his team of scenic artists – who normally work on stage sets for the opera and ballet next door. Covering the CNC-milled polystyrene blocks with plaster and granite sand, they have mimicked the neighbouring gnarled stone even down to the detail of moss, electrostatically flocked onto the surface.
“My perform is typically very straightforward in its idea,” says Chinneck, “but it’s a nightmare in execution.” Eight months in the generating, the Covent Garden installation is the product of a one hundred-powerful team of architects and engineers, carpenters and set-builders, and much more than 500 hours of digital carving. It follows earlier commissions in the piazza from Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst, Banksy and Sam Taylor-Johnson.

Image by Official Travis AFB, Calif.
The USAF Air Demonstration Squadron ("Thunderbirds") is the air demonstration squadron of the United States Air Force (USAF). The Thunderbirds are assigned to the 57th Wing, and are based at Nellis AFB, Nevada. The Thunderbirds execute aerial demonstrations in the F-16C Fighting Falcon.
The Thunderbirds have the privilege and responsibility to perform for men and women all around the planet, displaying the pride, precision and professionalism of American Airmen. In every hour-extended demonstration, the team combines years of training and encounter with an attitude of excellence to showcase what the Air Force is all about. The sharply choreographed, drill-style ground ceremony kicks off the demonstration by showcasing the interest to detail and esprit de corps that defines our enlisted members. As the jets take to the skies and fly only a handful of feet from wingtip to wingtip, the crowd gets a glimpse of the amazing skills and capabilities that all fighter pilots have to possess. The solo pilots integrate their own loud and proud routine, exhibiting some of the maximum capabilities of the F-16 Fighting Falcon â the Air Forceâs premier multi-part fighter jet.
The squadron tours the United States and considerably of the planet, performing aerobatic formation and solo flying in specially marked aircraft. The name is taken from the legendary creature that seems in the mythology of several indigenous North American cultures.
