Thanks, Chris. I've been around this airport for sixty years, flew
there for thirty-five. They know and trust me. I provide photos for
the airport manager, and he in turn encourages me to get near the
action. It works well.

It’s a beautiful bird, Jim, thanks for sharing it. It seems very easy for you
to be close to the aircraft etc . . . do you get a pass for the flight line?

I looked at the scheduled flights for today and realized one of the prime
restored DC-3s in the country was coming in. In keeping with its age, I put a
Leica Summaron 35/3.5 on the Fuji X-E1, a lens dating from 1956, purchased from
a former LUG contributor. Here are three images:
