The jet is the unique-looking F-4 Phantom. The car is a Gumpert Apollo. It appears to be built on an Audi platform. Limited production. I found a handful for sale in different parts of the world. To my surprise, there is one for rent four miles from where I live. Prices are a bit steep. 

4 Hours $2650.00
8 Hours $3600.00

Anyone see some of the modern planes painted with D-Day stripes? Getting ready for next years anniversary. I saw a C-17 with stripes the other day and it initially spooked me with all the stuff going on. After some research I found out that certain squadrons that participated in D-Day are painting stripes on some planes as a remembrance and celebration. Nice touch.

Thanks for the info. I'm going to be late for work, but these good vibes will carry me through the day.

As a child, I tinkered with models. So much fun. I wish I had the time now.

Runway 9, looking east the other day.

 

This dude landed, turned around and took back off.

Looks like you got more snow than we did from that storm.

I put a ruler in the snow on the block fence in the back yard and it showed 6.5" and it kept snowing for another 2 hours.

And that pic is only after 2 passes with the plow....maybe 3.
