Interesting bit of aviation history yesterday when a Boeing Model 40 (the oldest flying Boeing aircraft) flew on a photo op session over Mt Rainier. The pics here:

Look great, and at first I thought it was a photoshop job, but no... I bet the guy in the Model 40 was freezing his a$$ off in the semi-open cockpit!
