Some Planes Over the River

Sometimes there is a pause between ships.   And sometimes, I look up to the sky.
 This 747 was on it's way to Chicago.
 I heard these planes as they approached.
 This is a plane that I've seen over the river before.   I think it belongs to the Windsor Flying Club.
 It is a Boeing-Stearman N2S Kaydet and was used for flight training.  It's a pretty cool looking plane.
This is a DeHavilland DHC-1 Chipmunk.  It was developed immediately after World War II and first flew in 1946.  It was used as a training aircraft for the Royal Canadian Air Force, the Royal Air Force, the Portuguese Air Force and Belgian Air Force.  It would be retired in 1972 but is still used privately.
