THE PLANE NOW DEFLATING AT GATE 44Ö
You would be left feeling deflated if you had booked a ticket on this plane.
This aircraft seemingly making a limp landing at Zurich airport is actually an amazing sculpture by Swiss artist Aleksandra Mir.
Called 'Plane Landing' the 21 metre inflatable is appearing at different locations around the world - including not quite touching down at the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
The AIR-craft was made by the British team who created balloons for the late Steve Fossett. They used 1km of thread to stitch the special fabric used to hold 100 cubic metres of gas.
And while the sight of the blown up plane with its 15 metre wingspan is impressive enough, Aleksandra believes watching the aircraft inflate is part of the artistic experience.
She says: "One inflation counts as a one day event that begins at dawn. The actually processes of inflation and deflation take approximately 1.5 hours each and are pure spectacles.
"As the plane becomes infused with gas and metamorphoses from a flaccid fabric bag to an erect steel like missile, and back again to a deflated state, it also at various stages resembles an gracious animal going through it's life cycle from birth to death."
This year Plane Landing is scheduled to appear in Lisbon and in Sicily, and over the next decade Aleksandra plans to display the work in a variety of locations; including the California desert, against the Manhattan skyline, in the Swiss Alps and a...

RAF wings Graduation Ceremony, RAF Cranwell, Sleaford, Lincolnshire, Britain - 11 Apr 2008
Prince William has become the latest member of the royal family, along with his father and the Duke of Edinburgh, to learn to fly with the Royal Air Force. Along with 25 other RAF cadets he graduated today (11 April) and was presented with his 'wings' by his father at a graduation ceremony at RAF Cranwell in Lincolnshire. His graduation comes a day after the RAF celebrated its 90th anniversary at a dinner that was attended by the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall and William, along with RAF personnel of all ranks. After the ceremony, Prince Charles and his wife joined RAF graduates and their families at a reception before staying for lunch. In a move guaranteed to fuel speculation about their relationship, William's girlfriend Kate Middleton was also a guest. The Prince - an officer in the Household Cavalry regiment - has been following a shortened 12 week course that is designed to make him a competent flier but not an operational one. He is now shortly due to serve on attachment to the Royal Navy

POLAND / Krzywa / 2008. Abandoned Soviet military base after the collapse of the USSR. Krzywa is situated some 33 kilometres outside Legnica in south west Poland, near to the Czech and German borders. Legnica was the headquarters of the Soviet Union's Northern Group of Forces, and Krzywa was the main air base for those forces. With its 2,500-metre airstrip, the airfield could accommodate any type of aircraft.
Eric Lusito - Traces of the Soviet Empire
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/p8ug
These haunting photographs show the remnants of the once all-powerful Soviet empire.
They are the work of Eric Lusito, who spent six years travelling throughout the former Soviet world from East Germany to Mongolia, from Poland to Kazakhstan to seek out remains of the military installations that embodied the ambition and the might of the USSR.
Describing himself as working like an archaeologist, the French photographer says his project "Traces of the Soviet Empire" is a photographic record of the land and architecture - haunted by the symbols and history of a once powerful Empire.
The on-going project takes the form of three series: exteriors, interiors, and found photographs "images from another time, another space and another world".
What he found was colourful propaganda wall art, faded frescos of Lenin, discarded gas masks, and huge monuments, including those in the shapes of a soldier and a sword.
