Eastern USB tailfin.jpgIn our line of work we see a lot of USBs from airlines, manufactures, and suppliers. They vary from being unbranded to having a simple logo to having the logo engraved in a bamboo casing to being combined with a laser pointer. (That's the only reason we go to airshows: to collect the USB swag. Shh! Don't tell.)

I thought I had seen them all, but these Bader Models USB flash drives with an aircraft tailfin sent my current USBs fleeing from their port and taking cover. And no wonder: they're pretty sweet. They cover current (BA) and past airlines (Pan Am) as well as tailfins that have an engine in them (DC-10 and, my favourite, the L-1011).

At US$53 for 4GB they are not cheap, but surely some company wants to please aerospace journos at the next airshow?
