Great, I can see it fine - although it won't let me write a review (maybe the old version of iTunes that I run?)
Can you see where to change the Category to 'Aviation'? Back in Podomatic maybe?

Podomatic didn't have an Aviation category though.

If you search iTunes for 'New Zealand Aviaiton' it comes up based on the keywords, so all good.
I don't think I can change the Podomatic category even if they added the category.

Episode 35 still has not shown up there. Odd. Do i have to manually do something for every upload?
Also now that the show is there, can people please start rating it?

Episode 35 - Noel Kruse Part Three is now finally on iTunes.
The only problem to solve now is changing the category. I have searched and found somethreads about it but have no idea what they are talking about. Geek speak

I have been putting some movie clips I took with my point and shoot camera at Omaka up on my Wings Over New Zealand Show Facebook page here if you want to have a look: www.facebook.com/WONZShowSo far clips include flying down in the DC-3, the Fokker Triplanes taking off en masse, the Fw190, the Bacham Natter, and the Hercules having a run up. |

I was listening to Noel Kruse in one of his Wings Over New Zealand Show interviews talking about his days ferrying Sabres back and forth between Williamtown and Amberley. While listening I opened up Google Maps and zoomed in on the locations to get an idea of the flights that Noel did. While looking around at Amberley I found what looks like the F111 graveyard.

There are actually quite a few interesting aircraft in the current Google Maps/Earth imagery for Amberley. A few DHC Caribou skeletons. Just a bit south of the F111 boneyard is another Canberra. Four of the five RAAF C17 Globemasters are there (including one undergoing maintenance or testing on the runway). Also of interest is a Boeing Wedgetail airborne radar ship parked on the threshold of Runway 04.

Hi
My father Flt Lt Arthur Osborne was a Pilot with 75 Squadron based at Feltwell in 1942. He flew 32 missions over Germany. I have the canvas nose art from his plane "PRUNO" also photos of the Wimpy on delivery with just the "PRUNO" noseart and then a later photo with 27 bombs added and crew standing below.
I have his flying logs and various other memorabilia and could make available if you are interested for your series on 75 Squadron. A couple of years ago I taped an interview with his navigator (then over 90 years old) and his day by day recollections of each bombing raid was amazing - just like it was yesterday. Unfortunately he passed away shortly after, but I do have the interview as a record.

Many thanks to "RV-6 Pilot", whoever you are, for the most recent review on iTunes for The Wings Over New Zealand Show. This is really appreciated as it is the first review written on the page in seven months!!
It's so nice to see the positive feedback there. Thanks to the other listeners who've written iTunes reviews in the past too, and the 8 people who've clicked the star rating on the page. They all help to raise the profile of the show a little and draw in more listeners.
The show needs its profile lifted, we somehow lost a lot of the regular listeners when the show moved servers late last year, and now it's only just slowly starting to claw back the shortfall. Please share and promote the show links and make other enthusiasts of kiwi aviation aware of the show. Cheers everyone
