Oshkosh 2004 – what aircraft 2?

Heartened by the swift response to my previous query, I’d like to ask what these two are.

Thank you TonyA, here is my resulting caption:
Lincoln-Standard PT-K c/n 602 built in 1930, registered N275N with Kinner K5 engine, u/c is not the same as the original. Owned by the EAA and based at Oshkosh, Wisconsin.

Great minds think alike, Jochen! I was just about to put up exactly the same photo from Aerofiles! I’ll go for it! I’ll now try to find the N-registration, which will give me the rest of the details such as the owner and provenance. Thanks to you all, but if anyone out there knows the N-registration, please supply it!

I am with you distiller. It looks very much like a Lincoln-Standard PT-K.

#1 is a Lincoln-Standard PT-K (I think). But the landing gear is non-standard.

Thank you, I vaguely remember that the first is a Lincoln or Lincoln-Standard of some kind.

Papa Lima,

Didn’t see the first one. The yellow No. 48 is an N3N-3

Don’t know for the first one, but the second is a Naval Aircraft Factory N3N-3:
