Thanks, Chris. I've been around this airport for sixty years, flew there for thirty-five. They know and trust me. I provide photos for the airport manager, and he in turn encourages me to get near the action. It works well.

It’s a beautiful bird, Jim, thanks for sharing it.  It seems very easy for you 
to be close to the aircraft etc . . . do you get a pass for the flight line?

I looked at the scheduled flights for today and realized one of the prime 
restored DC-3s in the country was coming in.  In keeping with its age, I put a 
Leica Summaron 35/3.5 on the Fuji X-E1, a lens dating from 1956, purchased from 
a former LUG contributor. Here are three images:
