Rare Aircraft Pictures

[edit on 8-3-2007 by skunkworks82]

OK, y'all have some great pics up here and it's about time that I figure out how to transfer some to this site. I can do it via a link but cannot seem to figure out how to get the actual photo over here yet!!! Alas, I am stuck writing things to express my appreciation and happiness at the photos that you are all seeing/submitting!

Great job so far, I check this thread each and every time I am on.....Peace to you all and kudos........Mondo

A F-15E, which carry 3 external fuel tanks, two-CFT with full missiles beside pylon and bombs under CFT also can be a rare photo indeed.

i hope you enjoy.. i looked for the pics with the F-15E that had the most crap under it

The 747 farthest in the picture is a 747-400F. It is the last 747 to keep the orginal hump. The second to last is a 747-400D, which is the only 747-400 without winglets. The 767 in a green primer is a rarely seen 200 airframe. This 767-200 is the first AWACS for japan.

An old, but not really known design, the Ring Wing. Unfortunately I did not find the original picture of it, just the paint. The original concept was with the body of a modified B737 or something like that, but surely not a DC9.
