Well, I was thinking a new blog, from "my pictures of airplanes " and I decided on the photos from "behind the wire" in the ex-VII Brigada Aérea Morón, in the first half of the '70s.
Since very little was fortunate to see the Gloster Meteor flying, low flying and doing stunts the skies of Ituzaingó, where I grew up and I "poked" a passion for airplanes.
Also thanks to Gloster and the relative proximity of the base of Morón, name you always knew is that I did my first photographic experiences, with the help of an elementary fixed lens camera Voigtlander Vitoret. There was strong
"next to the fence", at times, especially in the feast of July 9, when that time country, everyone, absolutely ALL Air Force planes were grouped Argentina and off from the basis for the traditional flyover.
My observation site was an area near the neighborhood of San Juan de Ituzaingó, where the vast grounds of the base was an elbow and was the area closest to the track.
Further south runway threshold, the Merlo Station Gómez del Ferrocarril Belgrano Sur.
went there with my bike then retrace many blocks, for those who know the west, I lived five blocks from Rivadavia (Route 7), while it was Ituzaingó, was a few blocks from the San Antonio de Padua, my hometown.
By then, the areas surrounding the base, were sparsely populated, but then over the years, densely populated, which of course influenced changes operatively suffered the base, especially after the deprogramming of Gloster and his last flight over the skies of Ituzaingó, Moron, Castelar and around the December 29, 1970.
As said earlier, I chose my photo for this opportunity since 1970, more precisely after the end of 1972/73 and 1975, when thanks to my first job and had a new SLR camera Asahi Pentax SP1000 and a tele Takumar of 200 mm.
In 1976, for obvious reasons, did not realize other approaches to the base photo from "the wire."
remain for another blog post my photos in B & N for the venerable Gloster and my "Pictorial of '60."

I did not know the reason for landing in Morón the day I was taking these photos.
Well, these photos of the F-86F Sabre, should have been more down with the group and Moranes A4B, but those things arming the blog, were here, were
removed from south of the track header in Merlo Gomez season, during a July 9.
Nothing less than the Boeing 707 model-turned-387C 387b plant in Seattle, before delivery to the Air Force Argentina as T-01 presidential plane.
Acquired in the third mandate of General Peron was in late 1974, the last plane existing in the Boeing 707 and had all the improvements of the series.
On June 28, 1975 was called "sovereignty" and incorporated into the FAA. He was later Reissues TC-91.
held in May 1979 the REMP. transpolar intercontinental flight on a commercial flight via Auckland / Sydney up to nothing less than Osaka, Japan.
The reason was an emergency for the Distillery Lujan de Cuyo.
Then in 1982 he was posted to TOAS course and the 90 operatives UN PEACE. Unfortunately now, as everybody knows, lies in Palomar with the other 707, who knows what fate esperendo.
When I took these pictures in the head north of the base, in Castelar, I knew I made the final journey of instruction with the cadets of the EAM, in late 1975.
remember that he had made the mistake of buying a tele zoom of poor quality, so the photos, apart from the backlight, not turn out quite good, in my opinion.
The C-47A .. TC-18. The aircraft belonged to the logistic support of the Aviation Brigade and V presence was related to the A-4B will be a little lower.
Morón was also a good alternative to commercial aircraft, as in this opportunity, which, with the end of Aeroparque Jorge Newbery to repair the runway, the base of Morón used for commercial flights.
And came the pictures of the beloved Douglas A-4B. Who would imagine that years later inscribed pages of glory for the Air Force Argentina, for all his men and the entire Nation.
These photos were taken on September 1st of July, for those mid-70s, some from the "wired side" and others in the south of the base header.
