Isn't that the same T-34 Mentor that's in the previous post? But if.so,
that's a Bonanza on the right, not a Cessna. What's going on?

Using Google Earth to look at it, appears the only thing different
is there are two new hangers behind the angled one which is now
much smaller ( like one plane width).. .
and the parking apron is larger..

Not much changes in Poplar Bluff.

Times change. All those "new" shiny planes at the airport. It looks much
more desolate now. Those were the good old days!
