Yeah, that shot is opening day in 1957. They're celebrating the 50th anniversary next year and are looking for one of these 1958 Oldsmobiles. There were 113 of them and they had a special decal on the door. They haven't been able to find one anywhere!

That's an interesting story. More details here.

I imagine an old Olds like that would really be worth a small fortune nowadays. Especially considering they're no longer making Oldsmobiles.

I get the feeling (I could be wrong) that Allison Hannigan won't age well.

Well, at least she won't wind up with a pair of 38 Longs.

all that minimal separation stuff is cool 'n steady, but to me this takes the cake. it's not only close, but quite dynamic as well. it's playing chicken w/ some fairly un-moveable stuff! very cool pic.

is this what you pull off while pulling out of a dive or a low level flight, or right after takeoff? (how fast does the landing gear go up?)

Dave,

This is actually an extremely low-level version of a maneuver called "Walking The Dog." This video shows an F-16C doing the same stunt, but at a little higher altitude. You almost have to see it in person to appreciate the skill this takes.

Blue Angel Pic

}{arlequin, That is done on take off roll by the solo...

He jets down the runway and gets airborne, sucks up the gear
and when he is at the end of the runway he snatches the jet straight up. If he does it good enough the dirt on the runway with get blown in the air like a cloud of smoke.
