Old War Bird

Because our work territory is fairly wide spread, I sometimes see interesting things that are not necessarily closely related to agriculture.  One day this fall I was passing Smartt Field in St. Charles County, MO.  I spotted the C-47 below parked outdoors. The Missouri Wing of the Commemorative Air Force is located at Smartt Field. Their web site contains information about visiting.  The Commemorative Air Force is a nationwide group that is dedicated to preservation of old military aircraft.  They fly their aircraft all over for airshows.  We attended a show in Dixon many years ago and it was great to hear the old birds rumble in the air.
