Through The Mist Darkly

A great find on eBay.

An incredbile model of a Lockheed Super G Constellation in TWA colors.  The “Star Of America” actually exists and still flies today.  A recent picture.

This particular aircraft never flew for TWA.  It started its life as a freighter and went on to act as an aerial sprayer before being reborn by a group of enthusiasts in Kansas City.  The registration number is N6937C and she still flies today.

I am completely blown away by the quality of this model and I feel I stole it considering what I paid.  And, no, I’m not going to tell you.

2 versions of Phil Collins’ “In The Air Tonight” performed by the European “beatbox” group Natuarally 7.  The first is an official music video and is pretty damm good.  The second, and in my opinion better, version was recorded on the Paris subway
