U.S. Navy F/A-18E Superhornet gear down and locked on downwind 16R JAN. Assigned to VFA-105 Gunslingers stationed at NAS Oceana, VA. I kept hearing jet traffic but not the usual USAF T-1s, C-17As or Marine T-45Cs that are usually in the pattern but every time I stepped out to get a look at these guys they were too far away to get a shot. So I decided to sit on the patio and wait to see if they made another pass, they did make one more so I got a few shots but should have used a bit higher shutter speed (dumb photographer) as I'm use to the leisurely pace flown by the other aircraft and the wider traffic pattern they fly. These Navy jet jockeys fly a tight pattern indeed. K-3 55-300 PLM @300mm.

Hello,

This abandoned aircraft has been there for years. This is near the airport so I think at the time it was probably still airport land.
Test pics from January 2021 of a refreshed Pentax MX, tested with a Kodak Gold 100 roll expired almost a decade ago.

Thanks,

Looks like an old DC-4, From the late '40s
That's a lot of aluminum just rotting away,

You can plug registration numbers into google and it will find the plane, I've tried it with US and Canadian planes with great success

Nice shots,

I found more information: This abandoned DC4 was involved in a taxiing accident in 1992 when it hit a parked aircraft and caught fire. I thought it was longer than that.

Thanks,
