Aircraft Photographs

I was cleaning out the corners of my computer and came across the
following photographs sent to me by a friend living in Christchurch. I
had not seen them previously as before I got to them I received the
news that he had died in the night sitting over his computer. I was on
the way to Christchurch for the funeral when, at the airport, I
learned that Christchurch had been struck by the first of many
earthquakes and that the airport was closed. It's not surprising that
I overlooked them at the time.

appear to be the final flights of the F1-11s being flown by the
Australian Airforce. Most of the images would probably benefit from a
little processing of some kind.

The next three are Power Point

Nice stuff.

I hate to correct a dead guy, but those are F-111s not F1-11s. Folks
will say F1-11, which is fine from a phonetic point of view, but there
is no such aircraft as the F1-11.

Nice collection, but a presentation and not your friends original work.

Aah! Guys who know how to rub their stomach and pat their head at the
same time. Always entertaining.

You are right. I am so used to hearing people say it and even putting
it in print that my instincts took over.

Oh no. I hope I didn't mean to imply that. He probably acquired them
via contacts in the Royal Aeronautical Society.
