Aerial photograph EAA AirVenture 2013 Oshkosh Wisconsin
Aerial Archives created a series of aerial photographs of the Experimental Aircraft Association’s AirVenture 2013 Oshkosh, the largest gathering in the world of aviation enthusiasts on the morning of August 1. This view faces east toward Lake Winnebago and runways 18-36 left and right of the Whittman Regional Airport (KOSH). In the foreground on the right is the display of Cessna Aircraft Company. In the middle ground on the left are the exhibit hangars of Aircraft Spruce & Specialty and Rockwell Collins. In the middle ground on the right are the exhibit hangars of Bendix King by Honeywell and Garmin. Beyond the exhibit hangar of Aircraft Spruce & Specialty toward the runways is the FAA control tower, the busiest control tower in the world during the event. The FAA has staffed a tower at the EAA convention since the 1960s. FAA controllers compete to work the event which is known among controllers as the “Super Bowl” of air traffic control. More than 10,000 airplanes arrive for the event. Many thanks to Don Voland of Aero Optics, Inc and Nick Anderson, the pilot who flew the Bell-47 helicopter from which these aerial photographs were created.

Aerial Archives Murals on Display at East Bay Regional Park District’s Big Break Visitor Center

June 22, 2013 / By / Aerial Photographs, Aerial Photography
aerial photo Sacramento delta agriculture
Two large aerial photography murals of the Sacramento River Delta are part of a new exhibit at the Big Break Visitor Center in Oakley, California. The exhibit, designed by Nick Cavagnaro and Doyle Wegner of the East Bay Regional Park District with assistance of Frank Binney and Associates, provides insight into the Delta’s geography, history and uses. Three fourths of Delta lands are used for agricultural purposes as illustrated in this aerial photograph. Because of the Delta’s fertile peat soils and controlled marine influence, it produces a yield per acre that is almost 50% higher than California’s average.
