Some more old beauties... I will say this much. I went to Oshkosh for the Warbirds and a few other things. I did not expect to be as enthralled as I was by the vintage planes. Some of these things are true works of art and I think I came away with a deeper appreciation for aviation as a whole for just seeing them up close. Next time I go, they WILL be on my must see list.

Nice little Air Camper

I am easily distracted by shiny things...

This is the very first Pitts bi-plane! It wasn't with the other vintage planes, but it fits...

Nice one. Good to see we have another convert to real aeroplanes. Cheesy

I'm glad it isn't me that has to polish #2 Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
