The iconic inverted gull wing of the aircraft, along with its distinctive whistling sound made the Corsair unmistakable to friend and foe alike. The Corsair was remarkable not only in serving the US Navy and Marine Corps in two wars, but also remaining in production through 1952. The Corsair was also the mount of some of the nation’s most distinguished aces, including Gregory “Pappy” Boyington, Ken Walsh, and Tom Blackburn. Through carefully researched photos, many of which have never before been published and which are reproduced in remarkable clarity, the history and details of this iconic aircraft are revealed.

George’s association with the aircraft began with the arrival of the first F-4s in April 1964, and would last over twenty-eight years. The initial mission was to train F-4 aircrews, and from 1964 through 1973, the majority of these graduates went directly to Southeast Asia in support of the Vietnam War. As the need for newly trained aircrews decreased, the 35th Tactical Fighter Wing, and later the 37th TFW, added an operational commitment flying F-4Es and F-4C Wild Weasels, as well as F-4G Advanced Wild Weasel aircraft. The training of aircrews for Germany’s Air Force was added to the 35th TFW’s mission in December 1972. F-4 operations continued at George under the 35th and 37th wings until inactivation of the 35th Wing in December 1992, and the closing of George AFB at the end of the Cold War. Don Logan joined the USAF in August 1969, and flew 133 combat missions as an F-4E WSO in Vietnam, and later as a right-seater in the F-111A at Nellis AFB. In October 1978, he started his employment at Boeing as a Military Flight Manual/Weapon Delivery manual writer, retiring in 2002. He continues to photograph and write on military aircraft subjects.

  • An Overview of the Nuremberg Trials
    Name: edHelper An Overview of the Nuremberg Trials By 1944, the Allied Forces were confident that they were going to be victorious in World War II. Before Germany surrendered, leaders of the Allied nations began to discuss what should be done to punish Germany. After World War I, the Germans had trade restrictions imposed on them. Land they had taken was restored to the citizens of the original country. Many believed that the punishment for their acts during World War II should be more severe. The crimes Hitler and his Nazi troops committed were not easy to ignore. What to do with the leaders who committed these crimes was going to take time to figure out. In August 1944, one of President Roosevelt's own cabinet members, Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, submitted his plan to the president. His plan was fairly simple. He suggested shooting any German leader who was caught. He also suggested putting German soldiers captured in the war to work rebuilding Europe. His final idea was to destroy all industry in Germany and force it to become an agricultural nation. The president was inclined to go along with Morgenthau. Meeting with other world leaders convinced him otherwise. President Roosevelt met with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Russian leader, Joseph Stalin, in February 1945 in Yalta. They made an agreement that the leaders of the Axis powers would be prosecuted for their crimes just as soon as they could bring the war to a close. President Roosevelt died on April 12, 1945. He didn't live long enough to see the plan through to the end.

  • Erich Hartmann " Erich Hartmann, the Poetry of Daily Life " March 21 - May 4Th 2019
    Catherine & André Hug present : Carte blanche à CLAIRbyKahnGallery Erich Hartmann " Erich Hartmann, the Poetry of Daily Life " March 21 - May 4th 2019 Galerie Catherine et André Hug 40, rue de Seine / 2, rue de l’Échaudé 75006 Paris www.galeriehug.com Mardi au samedi : 11h à 13h et 14h30 à 19h The Kiss,©ErichHartmann/MagnumPhotos/CLAIRbyKahn The Erich Hartmann, The Poetry of Daily Life exhibition emerged from a chance meeting and an immediate enchantment. The meeting was between Anna-Patricia Kahn, who is the director of CLAIRbyKahn, and Catherine and André Hug, who are the renowned owners of their eponymous gallery in Paris. And the enchantment took place the instant Catherine and André were shown the Erich Hartmann oeuvre. Then and there, they decided to give a "carte blanche" for a Hartmann show to CLAIRbyKahn, the gallery which represents the photographer’s archives. Hartmann (b. 1922 in Munich, d. 1999 in New York) is celebrated for the subtle, mysterious poetry that emanates from his photography, the play of shadow and light that is captivating yet respectful. He embraced places, objects, and people with his camera, never unsettling the moment, always capturing it in a way that allowed it to be rediscovered. The Poetry of Daily Life exhibition features 27 images by Hartmann that magnify the glory of the ordinary and the dignity of the routine. The photographs on display are all vintage prints that have the unique quality of being developed by Hartmann’s own hand. This will be a momentous year for the Erich Hartmann archives as there will also be two major museum exhibitions consecrated to the legendary photographer: in Bale, Switzerland from February to July 2019 as part of a collective exhibition Isrealities; and then in November 2019, his Irish portfolio will be exhibited at the National Gallery of Ireland in Dublin.

  • Heinkel He 219 Nachtjagdflugzeug
    Die He 219 A-2, Werknummer 290013, wurde in Rostock gebaut. Das Foto zeigt die Maschine kurz nach ihrer Fertigstel- lung auf dem Heinkel-Werkflugplatz Marienehe. Das Bordradar FuG 220 Lichtenstein SN 2 ist noch nicht eingebaut, wie die fehlenden Dipolantennen an den Bughalterungen zeigen. Nachtjagdflugzeug Heinkel He 219 – schon bei der Entwicklung unter Beschuss von Dr. Volker Koos (ADL) 09.2016 durchgesehene und ergänzte Fassung der Erstveröffentlichung in Flugzeug Classic Heft 9-10/2008 Unbestreitbar – mit dem Nachtjäger He 219 gelang Ernst Heinkel ein großer Wurf. Schon beim ersten Einsatz vor 65 Jahren entpuppte sich die He 219 als voller Erfolg: Im Schutze einer Juni-Nacht schoss Major Streib, Komman- deur der I. Gruppe des Nachtjagdgeschwaders 1, fünf feindliche Bomber ab. Weitaus unbekannter jedoch ist die Entwicklungsgeschichte des erfolgreichen Nachtjägers. Am Boden musste Heinkel gegen ein Chaos aus festgefahrener Bürokratie, Fachkräftemangel und Bombardements der Produktions- standorte ankämpfen. Entstehungsgeschichte Dass aus der He 219 ein Nachtjäger werden sollte, war zu Beginn der Entwicklung noch nicht abzusehen. Denn das Projekt, das unter der Nummer P 1055 Ende 1940 bei den Ernst Heinkel Flugzeugwerken (EHF) in Rostock-Marienehe auf Basis der He 119 ins Leben gerufen wurde, zielte ursprünglich in Richtung Mehrzweckflugzeug und Aufklärer. Am 11. Januar 1941 erhielt es mit der 219 eine Typennummer, die eigentlich Dornier zugeteilt war. Wie der Schnellbomber He 119 besaß die 219 im Rumpf untergebrachte Doppelmotoren, aber ein doppeltes Seitenleitwerk. Ein Entwurf vom 23. April 1941 sah vor, dass ein DB 615 per Untersetzungsgetriebe und Fernwellen die gegenläufigen Dreiblatt-Luftschrauben mit jeweils 4,5 Metern Durchmesser antrieb.

  • Arado Ar 234 "Blitz" in Soviet Service Armstrong Whitworth "Albemarle" In
    This production list is presented to you by the editorial team of "Soviet Transports" - current to the beginning of January 2021. Additions and corrections are welcome at [email protected] Arado Ar 234 "Blitz" in Soviet service Soviet troops captured one example of the world's first jet bomber in northern Germany in spring 1945 (Russian sources state that it was found at Pütnitz in March, but Pütnitz was occupied by the Red Army only on 2 May). The aircraft underwent short trials at Rechlin in early 1946, but suffered from repeated engine problems. As the Soviet specialists involved in the trials were not impressed by the "Blitz" they refrained from sending it to the Soviet Union. It is probable that further Ar 234s (especially of the Ar 234C-3 version) fell into Soviet hands when the Red Army captured the Arado factory at Alt-Lönnewitz (Brandenburg) on 24 April 1945. One Russian source states that one Ar 234B and one Ar 234C were despatched to the Soviet Union where they underwent comprehensive study - in particular, one of the aircraft was thoroughly examined by BNT, the Bureau of New Technology. One of the captured Ar 234s was restored to airworthy condition in 1946 and used by the LII for testing brake parachutes. 140355 no code Ar 234B-2 Soviet Air Force f/f 30nov44 previously opb KG 76 of the German Air Force; in dark green/brown purple camo c/s with light grey undersides, the last letter of the unit code may have been an 'F'; captured by Soviet troops in damaged condition (after a forced landing) reportedly at Pütnitz mar45, but
