Odd-Ball Picture of the Day

Massive balls. I think Spitfire in the photo

 

Really good image quality for WWII, isn't it? Too good to be true unfortunately.

 

I know someone who has done this.

That’s not the tail of a tempest or a typhoon , I’m going with Spitfire .

 

A quick search says it is not a photograph. https://www.flyingpenguin.com/?p=22683

Still a cool image even if it isn't "real."

 

Invasion stripes?

 

I thought so, too. Though, it does give you a good idea of the steady hand it took to knock the V-1 off course.

 

The German's started lobbing V1s at England around June 13th 1944. So, after the Normandy landings. Many Allied aircraft sported invasion stripes for a while after D-Day.

 

Just to keep the theme going:

 

That IS super odd, Steve.

 

It's an X-box...right?

 

Oh crap. It's a membership site.

 

You just don't see that every day.....

 

Damn good brakes on that truck.

 

That must be making the internet rounds again. I'm pretty sure I posted it a year or two ago, I've seen it pop up a couple places lately.
