And this one that Jim is standing next to was actually one that was in the air show. The pilot was extremely skilled in the art, it literally looked like a little boy playing with a toy airplane.
This is the inside of his cockpit and if you can read the scribbled drawings, those were his stunts.
Here he is in the sky.
I even took a little video but I guess I didn't think about stepping in front of the speaker. It also seemed like I would always miss the most incredible stunts but it still looks neat. Ok I waited about ten minutes for this dang video to load and it wasn't making any progress so I will get back to that one after I learn a faster way!
This guy had quite the record.
Here are a few older ones that were out in the field.
This one you could even climb in and walk/crawl all the way up to the cockpit.
When we left the parking lot on our scooters it was sprinkling a little but that did not last long. It soon turned to almost a downpour and hurt...a lot. But hey we were getting 78 miles to the gallon!
Jim's shirt showed the water a little more obvious than mine.
Jim's Parents came down later that day and took us out to Ed Sullivan's in Trempealeau. The have the best salad bar you will ever stand in front of and are known for the steak and seafood. I got salmon and wild rice of course.
