[center]Something awesome happened yesterday.

Some friends and I were out shooting with our new camera dolly when we saw the most unbelievable thing!

A Ford Tri-Motor following by what looks like a Bell 407 with a camera pod. It was making several low passes with turns I'd say around 40 degrees bank.

I ran to the house and turned on the scanner and found its reg. to be N1077. It's in town shooting for the movie Amelia. I guess our area is suitable because it looks more 1930's there are old roof tops and no pools.

If I'm lucky, I'll see it tomorrow at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum tomorrow, but I don't know if it left already.

saaweeeet!

Just thought I'd add, according to Wikipedia (not the best source ) This Tri-Motor was flown by Earhart herself!

Nice shots.

Looks like there could be Hope on the Mountain yet.........

That's terrific... they may just be snapshots, but that's something special.
Looking forward to that movie; I'm sure they'll ruin the story somehow, but it looks like there will be some superb flight footage.

That was a bit of luck. Well done.

Great Catch!!!!!

That's a nice catch! Wonderful classic bird!

amazing! My grandfather is one of the stunt pilots for "Amelia". He said he was going to be flying a tri-motor.

So...that could be...him?

If so that's crazy! Tell him I said great flying!

Yes, it would be. I'll make sure I tell him!

If you can show me a bigger one of the first, I might be able to tell.

Sorry, I took them from the newspaper's website, not that good.
