Well Done, Lad!
I'm sitting at almost 900. Actually, this site was a lark. I have a collection of about 4500 images of military aircraft; lots and lots of 35mm slides, 3x5 and 4x6 photos and I am a new computer and scanner owner. So, I thought I'd scan all my shots in so they are in order, but I decided to research the serials to make sure they are correct before I label them. In the process of researching a Windecker Eagle that I shot to represent the type used for an E-5, I found this site. There was that line asking if I had a photo and I sent it, which led me to start sending all my Warbirds with N-numbers as I scanned them in. You will notice that comprises the majority of my photos. However, I have an old album of shots I took for an aircraft recognition course I sold to the FAA for $1000 back in the early 1980s, so I thought I'd put them to use also, and that's where most of the civil planes came from (about 1/3 of those shots aren't posted because they are no longer registered or else crashed). I've been shooting some airliners since I got my digital, mostly for practice to see what I can do. I work in the control tower at Cedar Rapids so I have a pretty good angle for shooting. Right now I have finished putting in my T-28s and will start scanning my T-33s soon, but not many of those have N-numbers. The shot I posted today is from way back in 1980 when I was taking a jump-seat ride in a B737 and we taxied past an L1011 that had had an engine fire. (I'm scanning in old family slides also so we can have photos to look at, and that shot was among them so I just had to send it). I don't think I'll be looking at 5000 shots for quite some time!
