Ah.... the Shorpy site: there's some really good stuff there. http://www.shorpy.com

 

Quite possibly those Kodachromes were taken with one of these, but we should remember that this wasn't the largest size - 8x10 and even larger for real quality!

 

A bit different nowadays!

GRRRR what's with not being able to edit the title, which the half witted software had decided I might not want in caps?

It's a bit of a nuisance, it caps the first letter in every word & you can't cap anything else. Hence RAF in the title displays as Raf, WW2 as Ww2 & I don't think you can edit the title after it's posted.

Nice photos, a lot sharper colour than other ones of that time. Interesting engine in photo #3, I've got a theory it's a Twin Wasp Junior, R-1535 in a Douglas O-46 observation plane, but I could be wrong. It doesn't look like a Twin Wasp or Twin Cyclone.

 

Cheers, Willie.
