What it was ?.....you all knew it ! !

Yes indeed, it was a Stearman, but not just an ordinary one, ......a Super Stearman ! !

Who would miss this opportunity, if presented.......I know that if any of the enthusiasts from here had a chance, they would try to take along everyone else, I was so busy taking shots for everyone, I knew I would miss a chance at the stick, but, there may be another day.......... ........you never know ...


It's just so darned hard not to smile in a place like this, on a day like this........


Tail's up and here we come.........


With a last wave....off we go ..........



If you missed Pt I, you can find it here

Blast it, Ken, you didn't have to take pictures the whole time... how could you not have taken control even for a few turns?  
It's very do-able... I managed both on both of my RV-4 flights ("just don't drop the camera in the stick well, or we'll have a little problem...")

But it's OK... I'd have to really despise you if you got to fly that beauty. If you ever get the chance, I don't wanna hear about it.

Thanks for all the pictures...

What Sean said!!  Hell with all the pics you should have took the stick!!

Great shots, Wendy!!  Does he still have a smile on his face?

Beautiful looking Super Stearman!!

Thanks for all the kind comments guys......it is real nice to know that everyone had a good time along with me.........I had a blast but couldn't let you miss it while I had all the fun............ 8-)

From the time I flew in a Piper Vagabond with Hal and took the stick for half of the flight including the landing, I still feel bad that all I have is a memory 'cause somebody forgot to have a camera at his side........

What's the engine on that... colors look like PZL factory finish to me
