Like the light from a hundred (very small) suns
Like the light from a hundred (very small) suns: Nice picture from the UK's official Defence Images website showing an AgustaWestland Merlin helicopter from HMS Northumberland vomiting forth 100s of flares over the Indian Ocean. The Merlin is one of several Flights (in this case 05) provided by 829 Naval Air Squadron in Culdrose, Cornwall, to Type 23 frigates for operations around the globe.

Kawanishi H6K2-L (Mavis) - 九七式飛行艇:
Καλό μήνα (happy new month, 良い新しい一ヶ月を) with a photo, from a vintage publication, of two Navy Type 97 Transport Flying-Boats or Kawanishi H6K2-L (Mavis) in flight.
The main easily recognisable external difference between the H6K2-Ls and the K6K4-Ls is the number of windows on the fuselage sides in front of and right behind the cockpit. The K6K2-Ls had 2-3 or less openings while H6K4-Ls had at least six windows.
We hope you like the clear photo showing various details of the flying boat in the wing, engine and support float areas.
