The Old and the New
« on: February 23, 2007, 11:47:44 PM »
Here are two pieces of artwork that were produced for the Unit I'm now working at.

The first one showing a PR Mosquito and USAAF Spitfire PRXI flying over the WW2 home of Photo-Reconnaissance, Medmenham

The Second one is of course a Canberra PR9 and USAF U-2 over the Joint Air Reconnaissance Intelligence Centre (JARIC) is based at RAF Brampton. (I have a copy of this image framed and hanging in my home, it was presented to me when I left this Unit back in 2004)

I think both are excellent works of art, showing the two eras of Photographic Reconnaissance.
