Cool photograph.
Your post kind of closes a loop for me. I've been intrigued by a site in southeast Oklahoma called the AT-6 Site by the locals where a couple of British Pilots in training crashed into the side of a mountain while on a training mission in bad weather.
I didn't know what an AT-6 was. Now I know.
Son and I hid a geocache there even.
My blog post on the AT-6 site is http://crustygasguy.blogspot.com/2008/08/at-6-crash-site.html
Well done on the photo treatment. Came out well

Very nicely captured. The composition really has a timeless quality to it.
This is a classic! I think I saw a similar one at the aviation museum in Ottawa.
