Texas Air Fiesta! Part 2

Postby Aerophile » Sun Nov 11, 2007 12:03 am

Here's John McGuire and his clipped wing super cub.  John is quite an inspiration as he is paraplegic and has modified his cub to where he can fly it without the use of his legs.  He's rigged it to where his rudders are controlled with his hands.  For his day job, he works as an engineer with Lockheed.

Here's another one of the Pitts.  I guess she decided to do another run since only she and John were the only ones flying.  I wish this one had turned out better, but she came in a little lower than I anticipated.
