Awesome shots.  Nothing beats a classic aircraft.  I'd take that old stuff anyday!   ;)

Unfortunately these were the only shots which I could get from my vantage points............the marina and river blocked most of the good places, but the worst of all, was the locked gate on the dock where it was moored.    :(       :'(
