This Piper Aztec has been sitting here for quite a while. Her tires flattened and the runway at Newton Airport blocked by utility construction vehicles, there is no way out for this old bird.

, Aeroflex-andover Airport , 2014-06-21

This Piper Tomahawk, a long-time resident at Aeroflex Andover, looks as if she hasn't flown in a while, judging from the fungal growth on the wings and elevator.

No, this photo is not askew; that is the angle of this 1958 aircraft, as I saw her at Sussex Airport, NJ. Tires were flat, as well. I last spotted this aircraft seven years ago in Kutztown, PA; she looked a lot healthier then.
