Description

I posted before a picture of Rick Brown, an English WWII glider pilot. he past away in the last 2 months. he was a four engine,two engine, one engine and glider pilot. He had met the queen and she gave him thanks for his role in defending England I went to Frontiers of flight yesterday to visit some WWII era bombers. this year they only had two bombers and a very old jet I used my Canon 15mm fisheye and I really liked the results of getting great coverage. I was shooting around a net and did not get this straight as I would like. some information about Eric "Rick" Brown http://www.pegasusnews.com/news/2008/jan/01/north-texan-profile-marvin-krieger-man-many-parts/

Excellent! Must have been chaos in a real pinch. But what I love most is the "Office chair" for the bombardier... Can hear the question... "what did you do at work today, ....?"
