Each year up to 10,000 visiting aircraft - of all shapes, sizes and varieties - make Oshkosh the busiest airport in the world. This gigapan was shot Saturday morning. It only has a few bad spots in the stitching caused by people walking in front of the lens.
This shot includes: f-16 , falcon , f-15 , c5m galaxy , c-17 globemaster iii , c-130 , erickson sky crane , dc-3 named “duggy” , cv-2b caribou , p-51 mustang , a-10 thunderbolt , f4u corsair, e-2c hawkeye, ford tri-motor, b-17 flying fortress, pitts model 12, gulf stream to name a few. This was a fantastic event and had so many amazing aricraft new and old. I will be posting some videos from the event on youtube.com including the A380 taking off from Oshkosh 2009. I hope you enjoy and please email with comments! http://www.airventure.org/ |

A static display of a Flight Design light-sport aircraft http://flightdesign.com/ at the Mall of America. The plane is designed for pilots with a Sport Pilot flying license http://tinyurl.com/yb62orv which is easier to obtain than a regular pilot's license. The Flight Design CTSW excels as a flight trainer or air touring aircraft. |

A light sport aircraft at the Mall of America, Bloomington, Minnesota. What appear to be alignment problems were caused by people moving around in the cockpit, causing the plane to move on its landing gear. |

Located in Wetaskiwin, Alberta, southeast of Edmonton, the Hall contains dozens of rare aircraft, some unique like the full size replica of the CF-105 AVRO Arrow.
See how many of the planes on display you can identify (with a snapshot) This GigaPan was subject to some vibration during shutter release causing some slight blurring on some frames. Will be doing a re-shoot in a few months. |
