NW005 MIA-MSP was forced to land in TPA after losing an engine over Madison, FL. No injuries were reported. This photo was shown in the New York Times and USA Today. NTSB incorrectly quotes the reg as N2280 (which does not exist). Brian Harrison Contact Link to me!

In this clean configuration the usual superpods and the many antennas are missing. Most probably a test flight after some maintenance work at Plant 42. Gerhard Plomitzer Contact Link to me!

The Leduc 010 was released at altitude from a four-engined Sud SE-161 Languedoc transport aircraft (a section of which is retained here). After release the pilot would fire up the ramjet and the aircraft flew. This aircraft flew a test program until retirement in 1953. The pilots were VERY brave. TZ Aviation Contact Link to me!

This pilot ended up in the crash barricade. To quote the pencil written note on the back side of the photo "Aircraft ended its course in the net and as usual pilot escaped uninjured".

Not being a different A/C, this one deserved some attention... These pilots were caught in some wind shear, and it was really close to total disaster, since the wing almost touched the ground! You can also see the stress in main landing gear... At that time, there were gusts up to 44 knots of crosswind, and heavy turbulence was reported! I'm glad that everything ended up well..
