Photo of the Day
Picture of the Day: Divine Providence
Nir Dagan submitted this photo and note: “Caught this amazing rainbow after I canceled my flight on a C-172 due to strong and gusty wind at Megiddo Airport (LLMG) in Israel. For me it was a sign I made the right decision.”
Picture of the Day: A Texas sunrise
John O’Leary submitted this photo and note: “Getting ready for an early morning flight to Harlingen, Texas, in my Piper Turbo Arrow when the sun started rising over the hangars at the Aransas County Airport (KRKP) in Rockport, Texas.”
Picture of the Day: Migration
Richard Melnick submitted this photo and note: “A Piper PA-11 and C-185 at Fifth Lake in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York waiting the annual migration to warmer latitudes.”
Picture of the Day: Arctic Tern in a cornfield
Dean Carrell submitted this photo and note: “My 1982 Arctic Tern in a cornfield grass strip during a trip I took to a friend’s in Minnesota. I’m 74 and fly four or five times a week. I live in Worland, Wyoming, surrounded by mountains and love this type of flying.”
Picture of the Day: This was personal
William Hunt submitted this photo and note: “The Imperial War Museum at Duxford, England, has many artifacts that are displayed as found. Notable is the tail of a German aircraft with a pair of holes in the middle of the swastika. If you looks closely, the holes are square rather than round. The museum says that they were made by a pickaxe rather than a gun. To paraphrase a favorite movie: “This wasn’t business. This was personal.”
Pictures of the Day: Ready for departure
Megan Vande Voort submitted these two photos of airplanes heading home after the close of the 2022 SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo on Sunday, April 10. Above, a 1944 Consolidated Vultee PBY based out of Wilmington, Delaware, takes off, while below a Cessna 172 departs Lakeland Linder International Airport (KLAL) in Florida.
Picture of the Day: Taking off in Paradise City
While the Thunderbirds claimed top billing at the 2022 SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo, some of the most interesting flying at the show takes place in Paradise City, home to a grass runway and light-sport aircraft, ultralights, and the STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) Demos. In this photo, Megan Vande Voort captures an Evolution Rev taking off — a photo she named “and she’s up.”
Pictures of the Day: The stars of the show
While ace photographer Megan Vande Voort captured some of her usual great photographs of the Thunderbirds at the 2022 SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo, she also caught some unexpected shots, as well, including one of the demo team’s biggest (and littlest) fans.
