Aircraft:
- All aircraft in this shot are Cessna L-19 Bird Dogs, used as Recon planes during Vietnam and Korea (if memory serves). It you've seen the movie Bat 21 with Danny Glover, then you've seen a L-19 in action (it's what Danny Glover flies in). Somewhat in the middle, there's a working 'Mutt' (nicley restored) from Vietnam (the next step in the Willys Jeep evolution). All aircraft are flyable and flew in/out on the same day.
Camera is a digital Toshiba PDRM-5 (2.15 MP). Image was resized from 7592x1095. Please note that there are some mistakes in the stitching due to the fact that the camera's lens is not dead center to the rotation point on the tripod.
