Zoggavia - news in August We are happy to present many new topics and photos. Nice to invite you: In addition to the (summer) weather in Finland, we can be pleased about the development of the Zoggavia website. The reach and number of subscribers and followers in various media and marketplaces have grown. This also increases the demand to continue to address you with interesting and exciting articles and the publication of outstanding visual image material to meet your expectations in the future. It's great to have you here again this time: Headlines: - Presentation of the De Havilland Comet, including the Hawker Siddeley Nimrod webpage -What type of aircraft was the first fire bomber, and when was it? - Something for those of you who collect rare slides - The art of aviation photography - Zoggavia supplies publishers with images Read more ... https://lnkd.in/di_JkZb7 September is about publishing more Comet information and images and planning new photo books. Sports will not be neglected either. An exciting hiking week in Andorra awaits us. In the isolation of the mountains and with physical activities, new ideas keep coming up, and in retrospect, the best ideas for the further development of Zoggavia were born there. We wish you a lovely late summer and see you soon. #aviationphoto #aviationphotography #civilaviation #stockphotos #kodak #slides #aviationgeek #zoggavia

Construction noise spooks trained military horses in London Recent events in London have highlighted the urgent need for innovative solutions to manage construction noise. Five trained military horses of the Household Cavalry were spooked by loud noises at a construction site during a rehearsal, leading to a chaotic situation where the horses, along with some soldiers and a cyclist, sustained injuries. See BBC article at https://lnkd.in/gPmHvmTc. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the immediate and disruptive impact of construction noise, not just on daily operations but also on the well-being of both humans and animals. At Noizend, we are dedicated to tackling this issue head-on using advanced manufacturing and materials technologies. Our development of the Noizend Shield aims to offer a portable, flexible solution to effectively reduce low-frequency noise from various industrial applications, including construction. As urban environments grow, the challenge of managing noise pollution becomes more significant. The long-term health effects of continuous noise exposure are well-documented, aligning with concerns raised by international bodies like the United Nations and the World Health Organization. We invite you to join us in our mission to enhance urban living conditions through advanced noise reduction technologies.

Ship hits the Bartolome Mitre bridge. Zarate, Buenos Aires, Argentina. For sure will not going to sail for a while..... A bulk carrier vessel, the “EN MAY” hit a support pillar for a vital road bridge that connects Buenos Aires with Argentina's northern Entre Rios province. The accident resulted in the Parana River Waterway being closed. According to AIS data the incident occurred around 9:00 PM on Sunday, 28th January. The vessel was traveling at around 10 knots when it hit the bridge support. EN MAY is an 85,000 deadweight tonnage (dwt) bulker that was constructed in 2017 and is operated by a New York-based firm. The vessel allided with the southwestern pylon of the bridge on the Zarate side of the river. The bridge pylons have protruding defensive buttresses on the side that faces the river upstream, however, there were no defenses on the side where the pylon was hit. Videos from bystanders circulating on social media reveal extensive damage to the vessel on the port side, with a significant hole that extended both above and below the waterline on the port bow. The ship even though gravely damaged is reportedly stable and the flooding is confined to a single hold forward. As of Monday, 29th January, the ship is still positioned next to the pylons of the bridge. An investigation has been opened to find the cause of the incident. Local reports so far suggest a rudder failure culminating in the collision. Maritime traffic has been halted in the waterway for safety reasons. Although vehicles are still being allowed through the road bridge above, restrictions have been placed on the weight of the vehicles that can pass at 50 tonnes. The speed limit on the bridge has also been reduced to 40 miles per hour. https://lnkd.in/dsy5GQ3m

Fellowship of Christian Airline Personnel International - FCAP Eastern Air Lines had the distinction of being the launch customer and first operator of the Boeing 727 trijet, the most popular jetliner ever built until its sales numbers were surpassed by the 737. Service with the type began in February of 1964 with aircraft like this EAL 727-100, “N8124N,” seen here on final approach into Philadelphia in 1979. Eastern flew both -100’s and the stretched -200 version of the “Three-Holer.” In fact, there were still -200’s in the fleet nearly 27 years later when the venerable U.S. carrier ceased operations in January of 1991.

On a cold February day in 1973 Delta Air Lines McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10 "N603DA" tucks her gear up immediately after a dusk departure from New York's La Guardia Airport. Destination is likely a city in Florida (on routes DAL picked up through the previous year's merger with Northeast Airlines). Delta ordered five DC-10's in the early 1970's and immediately sold them to United. Then a lease-back was immediately signed, through 1975, for Delta to fly the widebody trijets. Delta had bet big on the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, however the type's future was briefly in danger when engine-maker Rolls-Royce filed for bankruptcy. Delta needed to stay competitive with the other new jumbo jets and these DC-10's (along with five 747's) fit the bill. In the end, though, Delta held on to its L-1011 orders and, many years later, became the largest operator of the airplane.

A bit of a mystery for today. When I found this photo I assumed it was a rare British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) in-service shot of the ill-fated de Havilland Comet 1, the world's first pure jet airliner. However the "G-AMXK" registration does not match any BOAC Comet 1. Furthermore the 1958 year and Baltimore, U.S.A. location assigned to this shot does not match the 1952-54 service dates and routes for the original Comet. Apparently this is actually an example of the first redesign of the type, the Comet 2. BOAC had ordered 11 of this variant prior to the catastrophic loss of two of its Comet 1's in the well-known "metal fatigue" crashes. After those accidents, however the orders were cancelled. Apparently a few Comet 2's were briefly painted up in BOAC colors prior to the cancellation, but that would have been well before 1958 and what, then, was a variant without transatlantic range doing at Friendship Field? (Any of my expert friends from the U.K. are certainly welcome to chime in here!) NOTE: IF PHOTO IS THUMBNAIL SIZE ONLY, PLEASE CLICK ON IT FOR FULL SIZE IMAGE. Interested in legendary Pan Am?
