    Hello.

    There was an airshow featuring some ancient aircraft last summer.

    I hope you like it - remarks are always welcome.

    Regards,

    Messerschmitt Me109 - I tried to let the photo look "older" - did it work ?

    And one of yours: a Douglas A-1 Skyraider - the greatest sound of them all !

    Great shots Mattes. I can't see the 109, is it the Black 6? Not my pic...

    Hello Trey.

    It's the "black seven" - the plane crashlanded last autunm and is currently being repaired. Fortunately, nobody was hurt, but the aircraft is severely damaged :frown:

    I remember that:frown: . That accident fueled contention within the historical aviation enthusiast community. One side states that the remaining war relics should be grounded to avoid loss, the other states they should fly as they were meant to be.

    Very nice. Keep 'em coming.
    As for the older look, I would've tried "newspaper" look or maybe sepia.

    Something like these maybe?
