📝 Spotter's notes

At first glance I thought I was seeing a T-6 Texan taxiing towards us. They are a common enough sight at small airports. But upon closer observation I saw she was something altogether different. A quick search of her tail number revealed that she is a Vultee BT-13 Valiant, a WWII era trainer, like the Texan. She had the nickname, the Vibrator.
