A beaut of a Scoot(er)

If this shot of a stunningly restored and US Navy-liveried Douglas A-4 Skyhawk (also nicknamed the 'Scooter') doesn't take you back several decades, then nothing will. The image was taken at the concisely-titled Valiant Air Command Tico Warbird Airshow on 22 March. The event, which also included one of the final appearances by the US Air Force's Thunderbirds display team this year due to the effects of sequestration cuts, took place at the Space Coast Regional Airport in Titusville, Florida. Registered as NX2262Z, the aircraft on show is an A-4C, and was restored by Skyhawk Ventures.

I've no idea why this picture has just appeared on EADS' Flickr stream as it was taken in August last year, but it is rather nice. It shows an Airbus Military A400M and the Patrouille de France display team in their Dassault-Dornier Alpha Jets soaring over the mountains.

This week's Valentine's Day-themed Image of the Week (featured on page 3 of Flight International 8-14 Feb), is taken by AirSpace user lammet67. His photo depicts a heart contrail formed by four aircraft from Team 60, the Swedish Air Force's acrobatic team. Team 60 made the heart in 2006 during the 80th anniversary celebrations for the Swedish Air Force.

You can see two of the aircraft in the lower right hand corner (click on the photo for a larger view).
