[vintage-and-warbirds] The Dornier Do 17 One Year Later
Forwarded message - From: Steve Link steven_link@
WarbirdsNews — June 9, 2014
PRESS RELEASE- Tuesday 10th June 2014 will mark the first anniversary of the moment the world's last surviving Dornier Do 17 was successfully lifted from the bottom of the Dover Straits. The breath taking moment the aircraft surfaced from the water was captured live on TV and sparked interest from around the globe.Just five days later on the 15th June, the Dornier was transported from Ramsgate, Kent, to the Royal Air Force Museum Cosford, Shropshire and placed inside purpose built hydration tunnels. Here, the Dornier has been systematically sprayed with a low concentration citric acid based solution to arrest the damaging effects of nearly seventy years on the seabed. This process has helped to soften up and remove marine accretions, allowing direct access to the airframe structure and the subsequent neutralisation of corrosion impurities.
Sure hope this old gal gets the attention she deserves….

Elliott Marsh posted: "6 June, 1944. After nearly five years of war, this was it. The fight for the free world. The Allies flew thousands upon thousands of sorties on D-Day; heavy and medium bombers pummelled coastal defences, fighter-bombers kept the roads and railways clea"

La Défense lance le processus de remplacement des F-16 - Belgique - Actualité - LeVif.be
Le ministère de la Défense vient d'adresser à cinq agences étatiques, deux américaines et trois européennes, une demande d'informations (en anglais "Request for Information", RFI) concernant cinq avions de combat susceptibles de succéder aux F-16 vieillisants, a-t-on appris mercredi des sources concordantes.

La publication de ce RFI, qui n'engage en rien à un achat futur ni au choix d'un appareil déterminé, "vise à rassembler des informations" allant au-delà des sources ouvertes jusqu'ici disponibles pour la prospection, ont expliqué plusieurs sources au sein du ministère.
