From the smokey takeoff to the sweeping loops and rolls, Greg Shelton captivates the audience as the 450hp Super Stearman roars overhead with Ashley waving from atop the wing. Today's photo essay captures some of excitement we experienced during Monday's airshow.

We conclude our series on World War II-era warbirds flying during the EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2013 daily airshows (more special warbird coverage is still to come) with four well-known performers. First we will feature Steve Hinton, Sr. in the Grumman F-7F-3N Tigercat, the U.S. Navy's first twin-engine fighter of the era that entered service just after World War II ended. Next will come Scott Yoak in his P-51D Mustang, "Quick Silver." We conclude with Greg Shelton flying his Boeing N2S-3 450hp Super Stearman with Ashley Battles on the wings. All four performers are multi-talented pilots with thousands of hours in many aircraft types, and who are also accessible and appreciative of their audiences. The Aero Experience shows our appreciation by providing these views of their flying talent to our audience:
