Took a trip today down to Midlothian, TX (about 20 miles SSW of Lancaster and 40 miles S of Dallas), for a Pancake Breakfast fly-in that is held annually. This year there weren't any British aircraft (which have appeared in the past) but several vintage aircraft, incluing the one I was flying the support aircraft for did show up.
A few select photos -
Antonov AN-2 "Colt"
Douglas C-47B "Skytrain"
Piper Cub "Special" (this aircraft is built from Cub parts as new)
The Stinson L-5 "Sentinel"
"Artsy" shot of the L-5
Cessna O-1 "Birddog"
Stinson "Gull Wing" Reliant (model was used by British as Nav trainer and liason aircraft during WW II)
Boeing Stearman
North American T-28 "Trojan"
Also at the fly-in was one of the Augusta A109E Power II's from DFW's primary Medivac service, CareFlite
I put them up mainly because they are vintage and most were operated by the Brits during one time or another.
Today in little ole' Midlothian, TX (56k warning)
