It seems like there's a lot of photographers around now days with a fascination for old abandoned & wrecked aircraft. I can see the attraction, the images are a bit haunting if you start thinking about the past life & glory of these planes & the people who flew in them. It also brings out the junkyard addict in all of us, very hard to look at photos like that & not wish you had one parked in your shed or backyard.

 

Cheers, Willie.
