Nick Cave SmokingALT: Nick Cave Smokingstatic.klipy.comAny debate about 1955's Strategic Air Command usually comes down to which aircraft you think looks better in VistaVision: Convair's B-36 Peacemaker or Boeing's B-47 Stratojet. Which do you prefer? Check out our full chat with @coldwarhost.bsky.social here: 📺 youtu.be/ZGlRCnaF4pI 🎧 pod.fo/e/4db5c7

Jimmy Stewart, Curtis LeMay, and the Selling of the Strategic Air CommandYouTube video by The Aviation Showyoutu.beAh yes, let's blame Canada, everybody sing! www.france24.com/en/live-news...
France needs more Canadair water bombers but building them is painfully slowAs French firefighters struggle to contain the worst wildfires in living memory with just 12 aerial water bombers, production of the iconic aircraft creaks along half a world away in a Canadian factor...www.france24.comThis is one of my favourite gags in Jimmy Stewart's Strategic Air Command. Perfectly sums up Frank Lovejoy's Gen Hawks/Curtis LeMay analogue. Lots more on this film with @coldwarhost.bsky.social soon, the better version of which you can check out on Patreon now! www.patreon.com/theaviationshow
Read a cool article about an outfit that is able to extract and upscale the glass fibre in turbine blades from wind turbines. Happy! Then read the update to the article, as said outfit is not storing the glass fibre properly, and it is escaping into the local environment... Sad. 😡
