I shot these on a dark winter day with an old 620 Kodak when this plane came out of hiding, long before it ended up in the Lone Star Museum of Flight. If you look very closely you can barely see the ferry registration N7341C, which was exchanged for N81Y.
It was one of John Ortseifen's planes; a real time capsule!
