Some Planes Over the River

As I was getting ready for the Blough to appear, I heard some noise and I turned up towards it.  There was a formation of planes flying over the river.
 The plane on the left is a Vans RV-7.  It is a kit built aircraft sold by Van's Aircraft out of Oregon.  The airframe is designed to accept a 200 Horsepower Lycoming engine.  Roughly 1400 have been produced between 2001 and 2014.  The plane on the right is a Boeing-Stearman N2S Kaydet.  It was primarily used as a trainer for the Navy.
 An AT-6 Texan, although the plane is called a Harvard in Canadian circles.  This plane is wearing Canadian training colors but it was used as an advanced trainer for many Air Forces.
 Another angle of the first two planes.
A little later, this Piper PA-38 appeared.  It is owned by the Windsor Flying Club.
