Couple of shots from my trip to the surrounding areas of Calgary, Alberta. Fell in love with the town of Banff, and the badlands were pretty cool as well.

On 8th of May 1945 ,at the End of World War II, the US Air Force lost Airship Republic P-47D-25 Thunderbold at Lake Traunsee , Austria, after it had overflown the Concentration Camp of Ebensee, moving its wings as a sign of liberation. Shortly after that the airplane lost heigth and the airship touched the lake. The pilot succeeded in gaining heigth again, and jumped off the plane, before it crashed. The pilot survived so it was wellknown where the plane crashed.60 years later an American citizen was willing to pay the salvation charges. Now the airship is transferred to the United States of America to be restored there.

~S~ I think you mean the 8th of May the war ended in EUROPE. It ended for me in the PACIFIC on 14th of August.

It's not in bad shape is it? No markings seem to survive on it but the noseart seems intact, maybe the nose was in the mud?

Apparently this is what happens when you land on a carrier that is not your home ship. :drinking-43: :drinking-43:

ROFL, I've heard TD mention that but it's the first time I've ever seen pictures of it.
