The red one looks like a Stinson. Nice to see how strong they are and how the old birds seem to bestow luck on their owners or pilots. Last one I saw in the flesh took off just ahead of us at Bridgeport, Connecticut, 45 years ago. Met up with him five - ten minutes later when his port wing slipped neatly under our stbd wing as we climbed out and banked west. The look on his face - mine too probably, I was in the right seat - would have been a good model for Munch.
