Oh wow! I just noticed the Stuka behind the FW190! Damn! Now I'm really annoyed I didn't go!

The 'old' photos look nice, if you're going for the real old look might I suggest adding a little noise to them?

The sepia shots looked just right, and came out really well, the triplane looks so good when photoed in sepia.

One thought, when looking at a few of the other shots, have you experimented with either the shadow/highlight option or the curves options in photoshop? Areas like the underside of the wing or cockpit instruments would benefit from a little lightening, and the shadow/highlight tool would be just the job for this.

Only a thought though, nice shots anyway.
