    Awesome!

    I hope my ass is still pointing downwards at 94, let alone flying a plane! :)

    Cheers,
    Ian

    The sensations of flying a Stearman never leave me and I would love to do it again sometime. I have flown a 300hp version and flown in a 450hp and the way that airplane answers the controls is a sheer delight and I can still feel it and go through it. A PT-19 is a nice smooth airplane to fly but nothing like the Stearman. Fond memories! I doubt that I could land one safely now but it would be fun to try.

    Very Cool.




    We have 3 people that broke the "Very Cool" chain started by Lou.

    (But Bob gets a pass because his posts are really interesting.) :)
