    Really old cool plane pictures.

    My maternal Grandfather, Harry Leber, was a pilot and squadron commander before and during WWII. My mother and my aunt have several photo albums full of pics he took during these times. I took pictures of the pictures and will be sharing them here. I have dozens of photos to crop and fix then upload. I'll give you as much of the history as I know. He died six months before I was born so getting it directly is no longer possible.

    Here's a taste. How many of you ever seen a Martin B-10 bomber? Harry trained on one of these before going on to the B-17. This was taken at Hamilton Air Field near San Rafael CA in 1937.

    Old aircraft is cool

    What's the story on the Martin?

    Doesn't look big and bulky like most bomber from back then.
