Was at my kid's soccer game today and I heard a recip nearby. Scanned the horizon and followed this aircraft as it flew over the soccer field. Have absolutely no idea what it is. Can anyone assist? Thanks!

Nanchang CJ-6, Chinese primary trainer during the 60's. Quite a few have been privately purchased and brought to the US.

Radial engines don't actually leak oil, by the way. They just mark their territory!

Nanchangs are everywhere. Anyone who wants a "warbird" and cant afford a real one buys an Nanchang
