Nothing warmth one's hear as ability to see something writteng in one's native tongue. Here I read "Save" in Russian on a beautifully restored plane on display during 6th Annual Vintage Aircraft Show hosted by Historic Flight Foundation at Paine Field in Mukilteo. Sunny and hot, paint shines, aluminum panels reflect, and propellers are ready to take planes off.

Looking for abstract colorful composition is always an interesting way to approach the subject. I am not a specialist in planes, but as a designer I truly appreciate beauty in functionality.

...so do some insects :-)

I wonder if paint colors for airplanes have some unique names, like "Stratospheric crimson" or "Speed of sound blue"

Planes for sure have some provocative names!

...and beautiful graphic!

Scary!

I spent several hours photographing everything. If you would like to see more of flying vintage beauty, please visit Vintage Aircraft Weekend Gallery
