Planes in formation, Monday Mystery


 I'm trying to identify the aircraft and leaning towards Keystone LB-6 light bombers (biplane) but there are problems with that. The photo caption in the now-forgotten blog source suggested it was taken in 1935, by then apparently all the LB-6s had been scrapped. Are there any topnotch vintage plane spotters out there?

    Also twin tails, there are so many variations in those years.

    In half of nearly every single photograph picture and or in moving pictures of Bi-planes, there was always some goof walking around out there on the wing.

    And there’s always a goof with a camera to catch him doing it!

      probably hanging by a rope from a hot air balloon with a giant camera , wearing a bow tie and smoking a cigar.

    and there’s no one there to take a picture of the cameraman.
