Oh Eric I am sorry !I even didn't noticed that .
I think I know how a pic from your photobucket came to be my avatar.
When I was on a french forum,my signature was this famous picture that I took and scanned from "According To The Rolling Stones " page 157.
But some stupid people over there shouted at me and said the pic was too big ;as I couldn't manage to reduce it ,a girl made it for me and I think she took it from your album.
Do you want me to scann again the pic from my book ?
I am a Frenchie ,as Mick affectionately called them in the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1977 .
Hey SwayStones, I never meant anything like that; please keep the photo!
I took it from some bootscan on the web - and reworked it....to fit a "Norfolk1972"-torrent..! It's not my personal scan at all - I just thought it was funny how things travel accross the internet - you keep the avatar, you hear...!

Finally! A USAF acronym related to The Rolling Stones
By Stephen Trimble on October 22, 2008
The US Air Force has come up with a acronym: JAGR.
It's appears for the first time I'm aware of in a Lockheed Martin press release issued this morning about the extended-range version of the Joint Air to Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM).
The flight test objectives were to validate new hardware and software in the Extended Range missile, including new wing molds and the JAGR-S in the ER configuration. The JAGR-S is an advanced Global Positioning System receiver that incorporates anti-jamming capability.
We note sadly that this does not tell us what JAGR-S stands for, but I'll take a guess: "Joint Advanced GPS Receiver-SAASM". The embedded SAASM acronym stands for the Selected Availability Anti-Spoofing Module.
And any reference to The Rolling Stones, whether intended or not, is welcomed here.

This plane was used for to carry the band’s sound and lighting equipment on their epic 1973 Pacific tour.
It's a Lockheed L-749 Constellation built in 1947
It's now part of the Science museum's collection and it's stored at a former RAF Airfield, RAF Wroughton, Wiltshire, England. Ownership of the 545-acre site was passed to the London Science Museum in 1979 to be used as a storage facility for the largest objects of the National Museum of Science and Industry.

I was shocked to hear the 2nd Officer no longer calls out V1 and V2 during the takeoff run. What fun is that?
It's all about value for money. I'm immersed in civil aviation [I grew up underneath final approach to JFK 1962 - 1972]. In fact, I don't have blood, it's called JP6. Anyhow, I've been surprised to see pics of the band on their tour planes nowadays. And it's just a regular airliner with economy class seating, nothing special.
I don't for a minute think Mickette's gonna splash out lots of money on a luxury airliner during a Stones tour.
Talk about your favorite band.

BOEING 720B Starship - for their 1975 TOTA
Though Jagger found the jet's motif too Vegas (his first words upon boarding were, ''It's so tacky''), most passengers thought it quite stylish.

For fun I looked on ebay thinking (for a second) that it might be cool to buy a model of this plane and build it and hang it up with my Stones blimp, but I am not going to do that, but I did find a brand new OLD STOCK model still in it's original box on ebay.... if anyone is in to that, it ends tonight and is only 20 bucks right now... might be fun.

Man does that ever date us. The Stones were actually still using a conventional prop plane in 72 and not a jet plus that was known as a commercial carrier at the time. Wow! When was it since ALL commercial planes were jet powered anyway?

But I am getting confused :
Open G:
According to your web link,it saysQuote
If you were a rock star ,the only way to travel was in a customized Boeing 720 called the Starship one .
The Rolling Stones chartered ONE for their 1972 tour
I get loosed ....this is a very interesting thread !
[/URL]
Well well well - you should read on, and not take it out of context.
I'll try to highlight what's needed to understand.
"When the road manager extraordinaire Richard Cole was assigned the task of finding a plane ostentatious enough to transport Led Zeppelin during the band's world-conquering 1973 tour, the choice was as easy as a groupie: in the mid-70's, if you were a rock star, or just part of the bell-bottomed entourage, the only way to travel was in a customized Boeing 720B called the Starship 1."
But hey, the Stones were already flying in '72! - ok, with old fashioned propellers, but still.
Led Zep was flying with a jet a year later in '73 i.e. the Starship 1.
and the same meaning is in this sentence:
"There had been, of course, other private planes. The Rolling Stones chartered one for their 1972 tour, inviting Truman Capote and Lee Radziwill to tag along. And much has been made of the plush jets the wrinkly rockers leased for their recent world tour. But they are crop dusters compared to the Starship"
It's all about value for money. I'm immersed in civil aviation [I grew up underneath final approach to JFK 1962 - 1972]. In fact, I don't have blood, it's called JP6. Anyhow, I've been surprised to see pics of the band on their tour planes nowadays. And it's just a regular airliner with economy class seating, nothing special.
I don't for a minute think Mickette's gonna splash out lots of money on a luxury airliner during a Stones tour.
