  It is Waterford, looking across at Ferrybank, let's see if I can get a photosphere from Google to link correctly.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Google gets a hit on Facebook (my efforts to link there unsuccessful) to a 2015 talk by Sonny Condon to the Waterford Archaeological & Historical Society: This lecture will be on the famous SS portlairge, a steam Dredger built in 1907 in Dublin. The Portlairge Dredged the port of Waterford nearly 70 years There is a photo of the boat alongside the quay in 1980! Perhaps Flickroonies with local knowledge will remember her.

Beech Bonanza at jackknife rig near Midland, Texas - Superior Oil Co.

• Geoff Smith said:

  I believe this is a Beech Bonanza (BE-33)rather than a Navion.

• SMU Libraries Digital Collections said:

  Thanks! We checked and you are correct. I have changed the title.

• embarrassed squirrel said:

  A correction to the correction, it's either a Model 35 (built in 1947-48) or a Model A35 (built in 1949) Bonanza. The Model 33 Debonair series was the single straight tail version that came much later. In any case it's a great photograph and very reminiscent of scenes of similar airplanes in So. Louisiana where I'm from.
