Yeah, wasn't KODACHROME wonderful stuff? Too bad that pixels killed it off, I doubt they will ever make a reasonably priced digital camera that can come within 3 miles of KODACHROME for fidelity, depth, warmth, and saturation.

There's my Sikorsky! Thank you, Alan. Dang rotor blade's in the way but, looks like either a HRS or HO4S in service with the Navy or perhaps a HQ Squadron.

Meir Motors looks equally as fine.

This IS an awesome thread.

Great shots.

Need to pull out my fathers old "reel to reel" of his time in Korea in 52-53.
