Went on a Whale Watch and saw a Texan, but ...

I was happy with the day anyway 
Just joking, I'd move to Texas but I seem stuck in the Dysfunctional state of NY right now.
But anyway… I was doing some work near the Fulton County Airport this week and decided to bring my camera to get some more shots of the A3D-1 that is on display there. While eating my lunch at the airport I was surprised by the sound of an AT-6. It landed and I quickly went up to see it and get some pictures of it. The pilots were nice enough to allow me to take a few shots (thanks if you read this, if you come to Geneseo next year look for the Tailhook Ales being past around after dinner I’ll be sure to give you a few). They fly out of Amsterdam, NY and have brought one of their aircraft to Geneseo (stupid me forgot to ask what it was besides the supplied Bi-plane information), I assume it might be a PT-17. I guess I’ll have to dig that info up to see what aircraft that really is. It is always nice to get to see an aircraft I have not seen before, it look really nice!
Here are some shots from the day.
First the Whale
Looks like they have thier hands full in the upkeep with this display!
Last but not least!

Nice pix.
Question: Wasn't the Navy Air Reserve tail code"V" for Navy-Glenview, rather than Mirmar as on the photo??
Thx,
