The first photo: Old Airplane


This is the first photo posted on this blog. It's an oldschool airplane. No, people don't really use this kind of planes as public transport in Finland. It's a plane owned by an association keeping old airplanes. They were flying aviation orientated people over Seinäjoki yesterday.

I somehow managed to be at the airport at the right time. The plain was just going to leave. There were people watching and wondering how would the staff start the engines. They didn't have to rotate the propeller by hand, it had a start engine...the smoke was thick when the engines started one by one.

I wonder, if this plane is like 70 years old...how old must the pilot be.

This is the homepage of the association that owns the plane:
