Crapola Color

Here at BuffaloWingz we are often somewhat persnickity about the quality of the images we present. We prefer to bring you really nice, clean, crisp images whenever possible. But, when that's not possible, rest assured that we will toss whatever kinda crap we can find into this here cyber-rag for your viewing pleasure...

This image does not fall under the category of 'total crap'... it's colorful and and the photo itself is a very nice one. It's just that it was apparently scanned from a publication of old, and thus the image quality is not what it could be. A little effort with Photoshop has cleaned it up somewhat, but it's still not the bestest lookin'.

Regardless, it *is* a nice bit of eye candy for civilian aviation buffs. And speaking of civvies... your blogmeister is horrible with airplanes that are not camouflaged and which do not carry things under the wings that go 'boom'... so what's the deal with the 'FAA' on the tail of this Goony Bird? Does that indeed mean what I think it means?

Oh, I guess I should actually post the image, huh? Here 'tis... according to the image file name, this was taken at Buffalo in 1961...
