HA-LHC (cn 28884/738) Soon I have a portfolio about her - a lady, who likes to change her clothes often. But she's right; tropical climate is much better than Siberia. I like her new dress. |

5954 / A5-HL (cn 5954) "Chicago Museum of Science and Industry" The 1941 Junkers Ju-87R-2 Tropical Stuka is one of two surviving Stukas in the world. The plane revolutionized military aviation and military warfare with blitzkrieg tactics of fast, aggressive dive-bombing to support the quick advancement of German ground troops.

A97-216 / 216 (cn 182-3216) Rare close-up view of 36 Squadron C-130A A97-216 at Mount Hagen Airport (TPNG) in March 1975. The Herc was to carry a Bell 206B-1 helicopter (A17-021) to Port Moresby, and Laverton Victoria, after completion of Tropical Performance Trials. Locals refused to assist with the loading of the Bell 206B-1 into the C-130 rear cargo door! (Assisting the 'Birth of a Baby Balus' was OK. Putting the 'Balus' back was Not OK!). Low res photo. |

F-GSQM (cn 32848/558) Pictured taking a rest after arrival from CDG. On this day, the typhoon warning signal No.1 was in effect, which means that a tropical cyclone (Tropical Storm Higos) was centered about 800 kilometres in the vicinity of Hong Kong. You can tell by the weather in the picture as well! [Nikon D3] |
