As promised, here is a selection of my vintage aircraft shots from the Owatonna Skyfest on Sunday. For those of you who missed the warbird pictures, they can be found here. With the exception of the Howard DGA all of the vintage aircraft pictured here were either restored/produced by or owned by the late R.W. "Buzz" Kaplan.

I love the Carnuba Sikorsky, that is one of the most beautiful non-military aircraft I know of.

I was absolutely astounded to see both of the S-38s in attendance. I have seen Osa's Ark quite a few time at local airshows, as it spends quite a bit of time based at Anoka which is only 30 miles away. If I recall correctly, there were a few original parts incorporated into the reproductions.
