About 1968 or so

Pup, Triplane, SPAD, Jenny

Fokker D.VII being reassembled after rebuild, after a hangar collapsed on it from snow load. Upper wing is one piece so could be manhandled into place in this attitude
Image

Original SPAD XIII now at the Air Force Museum
Image

Mishap to Waco 9 "Miss Pittsburgh", which now hangs in the Pittsburgh Airport terminal
Image

Original 1912 Thomas Pusher, still in the collection, but not flown since the late '60s
Image

Thomas Pusher again. Cole flew this from Rhinebeck to NYC, Laguardia I think, to appear on "What's My Line"

Cool photos Andrew back when that was a neat place and everyone got along. Sad that isn't the story today.
