Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome

Saturday, I took a ride up the NYS thruway to the "Old rhinebeck Aerodrome" in Rhinebeck NY.
The Aerodrome is a living museum of vintage aircraft many of which are regularly flown on weekends

It's an "Albatros D.Va"
That particular aircraft is a reproduction.

I sure would have liked to see that. Those big multicylinder rotary engines are amazing.

Yes, there is nothing like the sound of a rotary or radial engine at full throttle!

However, there is something to be said about inline engines also

This a fully restored, all original Curtiss JN-4H" "Jenny".
It's the only air worthy "Hispano Suzia" powered Jenny in existance in the US.
