I find this very cool

Listening to: 'Puzzle'-Dada
In fairness I should point out that the CD being listened to often has no, and is seldom intended to have, any relevance to the content of the post.
Coming at ya from the early-mid sixties, the one of the coolest paint schemes I've ever seen on a jet (for anyone who is interested, it is a Boeing B-47 Stratojet, the first swept wing bomber to enter service, used by the US as nuclear bombers and surveillance aircraft from 1951 to 1965). B-47s were never camouflage painted, but this is fairly non-standard as colouring goes. They were usually just plain unpainted aluminium with white undersides. In all fairness this one isn't being used as an operational bomber (the caption says it was used for 'airways and communications development'). No sane crew would want to go to war in something that loud. It's cool because its really unusual, and you wouldn't see anything like it nowadays. The B-47 is also significant historically. It was the first time a swept wing was combined with podded engines that hung below it. This led directly to the Boeing 707 airliner, and eventually to the 747, which changed the world somewhat by making air travel faster and more affordable for the masses. Plus its a cool looking jet. Very elegant. I like its lines. Pity it was designed due to a need to be able to (if necessary) turn large bits of the Soviet Union into radioactive ash, but that is beside the point.

This is also cool.

South Island at sunset from the end of the Coast Road, Wainuomata, about a month ago. I like sunset. It is my favourite time of day.
