I'm the guy in the orange hat, blue shirt, and blue jeans standing next to the fuel truck with a couple of other folks in some of your pics. The Pitcairns were an amazing sight!

Awesome Line-up!
Are the other three Pitcairns in your photos flown at all?
I know the "Champion" use to fly. Got a chance to see it fly into Rhinebeck once.
Pretty neat close-up!

The PA-39 (camo) does not fly, nor does Miss Champion since September 2005. The PA-7S Mailwing (biplane) does fly, but not on a regular basis. That leaves the PA-18 as the only flying Pitcairn Autogiro in the world.
