| Parabellum | 2006-10-14 16:47:09 | High Society at Stellar City Airpark | My guess is that they are stacks of roofing tiles that have not been applied yet.
They're spread evenly around the roof, even on the North side, where you'd never place solar panels. |
| Parabellum | 2006-10-13 21:45:05 | High Society at Stellar City Airpark | Plane in the garage/hangar is a Mooney. I'm jealous.
There are a couple of planes in flight at this airport too. |

Does it come in a Quattro convertible model? |
| Parabellum | 2006-10-04 20:18:20 | Plane on a stick | Another brilliant Kelly Johnson design, the F-104. AKA the "missile with a man in it". Not a lot of wing area on those jets.

| Parabellum | 2006-08-26 13:21:28 | Wing With British Insignia in Texas | The length of the wing and the close engine spacing were the tip offs for me.
I was doing Google Image searches on "PBY Catalina" while you were finding the fuselage. {8^) |
