After this I went to Newport where the USCG has a detachement. Unfortunately nothing to be seen. OK, next airfield then: Albany. Here some interesting aircraft could be seen:
N2460S, Cessna T337C
A big surprise were 3 Skyhawks.....
A4E 149652/14
...and an old Queensflight Heron
registration plate
That made up for the long drive. I was told that 2 A4's will be gateguards, the other will be be uesd as a very large wind vane(!).
Last airfield today was Aurora. At first nothing to be seen but at the last leg of my tour around the field I saw this:
ex Swedish airforce 76
N238CH Boeing Vertol 234
CH47D 0-000198 (?)
N192CH Boeing Vertol 107
Not the best pictures but no good photo opportunities were possible.
