Before going up for a flight today, I did some spotting from my flight club hangars at Salem. Needless to say, there were some interesting sightings. I'll let the photos speak for themselves.

| Beechcraft A45/T-34A Mentor (N4WL) taxiing for departure to Medford. This was a pleasant surprise to see! |
 |
| Arrived earlier from Bremerton, Washington, stopping in Salem for fuel before continuing on southbound. |
 |
| Registered as a Beechcraft A45, the civilian model designation of the T-34 trainer. It was designated as such because there was no defense budget for a military trainer at the time while Beechcraft and Walter Beech (who developed the T-34) hoped they could sell it as an economical alternative to the North American T-6 Texan family of trainers, which was still in widespread use at the time. |
 |
| Always neat to see a post-war era warbird! |
 |
| Piper PA-28R-180 Arrow (N3287R) taxiing for departure to Corvallis. |
