The fourth Friday of the month can mean only one thing: Friday Fédèle. This photo is 🔍 zoomworthy: the high-resolution details are quite fascinating. (📸 Fédèle Azari [1895-1930] | Digital image courtesy @gettymuseum.bsky.social's Open Content Program) | 🛩️ ⚔️ 🎨 🥇 | 🔗 www.getty.edu/art/collecti...
An old, sepia-toned photo of two biplane aircraft parked in a field of short, scrubby grass. Both aircraft are pointed toward and slightly to the left of the camera position. Between the two aircraft, a group of men, some in overalls and some in suits, gather and pose for the camera. Two more men also look at the camera from just to the left of the left aircraft. A hill rises up above and behind the flying field. It's dotted with what appears to be whitewashed Italianate villas. Between the aircraft in the foreground and the structures in the background, a crowd gathers to watch the action from behind a fence. The fence consists of wooden posts of three or four metres high and then joined with wire, making it effectively transparent. Original caption from source: « A group portrait of men in suits and pilots in between two propeller planes in a field. There are houses on the hill behind the field. People line the fence behind the planes to watch. » (📸 Fédèle Azari [1895-1930] | Digital image courtesy the Getty Museum's Open Content Program.)

« Mississippi State to Develop Autonomous Soaring for Federal DARPA Albatross Program » RC gliders are only for fun? Their super-efficient flight has attracted the attention of researchers at @msstate.bsky.social and @darpa.mil. | 🛩️ 📡 ⚔️ 🪽 ⚡️ 🏫 🥇 | 🧵 1/2 | 🔗 www.raspet.msstate.edu/ne….
Two young men work in the cockpit area of a radio-controlled glider which is located on a small folding table in a large, well-lit workshop. The glider is all white and resembles the full-size, high-performance gliders of current vintage. The model, however, is powered with a small electric motor mounted in the nose. In the background there are various shop fixtures and supplies as well as an overhead crane. Original caption from source: « Randy Welch, right, a research engineer at Mississippi State University’s Raspet Flight Research Laboratory, and Chris Busutil, left, a flight operations technician at Raspet, integrate early electrical systems to a small, fixed-wing plane on July 7 for the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency’s Albatross program at Raspet Flight Research Facility. The DARPA Albatross project is a multi-university project seeking to develop automated weather and flight systems to test if smaller fixed-wing planes are able to travel while using 50 to 75% less energy. » (📸/✍🏻 Claire Wilson | Mississippi State University Office of Public Affairs)

« Volunteers Rally to Bring Forgotten WWII Trainer Back to Life » The good news? Barn find. 🎉 The bad news? Barn find. 😱 Actually, it was « a dusty hangar in rural Arkansas » and, all kidding aside, we have nothing but admiration … | 🛩️ ⚔️ 🥇 | 🧵 1/2 | 🔗 commemorativeairforce.org….
An old De Havilland DH.82 'Tiger Moth' is pictured in a very dusty and cluttered hangar. The aircraft is pointed toward and slightly to the right of the camera position. The aircraft is silver with broad yellow stripes running fore and aft on the wings at one-third of the distance from the fuselage to the wing tip. While the aircraft appears to be relatively intact, the floor of the hangar is cluttered with all manner of shop tools and supplies along with tires and even an old vintage car. It's best characterised as a complete mess. The hangar itself is the size of a large workshop, with exposed trusses supporting the ceiling. To the left of the aircraft, a woman in a purple top and black leggings is taking a photograph of the plane. (📸 Commemorative Air Force)

Ever wish you could travel back in time and see what a brand-new, factory-fresh P-51 looked like? Here's your chance: another inimitable Chuck Cravens update on AirCorps' restoration of the P-51B called 'Shillelagh'. Actually, we think it's likely quite a bit *better* than brand new. | 🛩️ ⚔️ 📍 🇺🇸 🥇
