bthouse68 posted a photo: F-15 on the deck of the USS Iwo Jima docked in New York City for Fleet Week 2010. I used some heavy HDR processing on this one as I thought it looked great as a “painting”.

Zeldenrust posted a photo: “Because the Belgian Air Component’s two Airbus A310-222 transport aircraft suffer from frequent engine and component break-downs, the Belgian Ministry of Defence has opted to lease a single commercial Airbus A330-300 from the Portuguese airline HiFly trough French airline broker Avico on basis of a 2.000 flying hours annually use and at a fixed price of 12 million Euros per year.
