Now you're asking. :-[ ;)

#3 looks very much like a Stinson L-5 Sentinel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-5_Sentinel

I think the last one is a Piper Super Cub.

Terrific.. love that "Bamboo Bomber"! ;D
Yes, I think the last one is a PA-18 done up to look like a L-4.

Only one nosewheel in view. Bliss!

I'd love to have a go in a Bobcat. It'd be nice to see one over here. :)
