That would make a heck of a weather vane! Quite a substantial foundation I'd imagine.

True, first large scale plane on a stick I've seen

Scott......

Canada had a few Lanc's on sticks.

If you do outdoor displays.....it is a must for the 22 ft average snow accumulation in winter.....lol....

Thankfully all indoors now.....

CWH


Windsor



Toronto

Press "1" for English.
Press "2" to disconnect until you have learned to speak English.

Sooooo, how am I going to know to press 1 or 2, if I do not speak English????

I think there is a B-52 on a stick somewhere...AF Academy maybe?

(I have a photo, not mine and I don't know how to post it)

...just another plane dreamer.

The single-point mount is what impresses me, much like the fighters that hang on a single chain from a museum ceiling. I know the engineering was likely calculated for 150% of the required load but it still catches my eye.

I had the opportunity to spend a fair bit of time around the Toronto Lanc FM-104.
The bomb bay had been cut away by torch. The front and rear spars were set down on a steel plate set on top of the concrete plinth.
The dissimilar metal corrosion was so bad that the bottom spar cap was about 35% missing. It was just mush!
I don't think she was too far from just folding in half under a good wet snow load.
The folks in B.C. will have their work cut out for them repairing all the damage done.

This is the one at the Air Force Academy. It's combat vet with a MIG kill.



And at the Wings over the Rockies in Denver.

B-52G 59-2601 is also on a stick (very similar mount to the USAF Academy) at Langley AFB, Virginia
