Gotcha, thanks.

Landing speed for the F-104 was typically around 150 KIAS, while a Chinook's max speed is around 170 KIAS. I'd say the story is plausible, especially if the airplane was completely devoid of a powerplant and fuel.

That looks amazing.

I'd imagine it would be.

Could someone kindly explain what we're seeing here?

Tomorrow (Friday) at 8:06am ET is the planned capture time, but the approach phase begins at around 4am.

I think he was joking.

20-30? Looks 90-100 to me. Maybe I'm just looking at it wrong.

Isn't that a pretty sharp turn for a high altitude airway? I don't think I've ever seen one that severe.

We'll probably be stuck back here at home waging World War III over our planet's dwindling oil and fresh water resources.

Whoa I never heard of this software. I shoot a lot with a 10-22mm lens and the geometric correction stuff looks rather attractive. Thanks for the link.

Cats are quite capable of doing this by themselves.
