Signs

[Roughrider]

Went To KAGC today while my son had a flying lesson, so I took the camera. There was a Steeler Game this afternoon so this guy was flying around the stadium pulling these signs, every 20 minutes or so he would come back drop one sign, turn around without landing and pick up another one. I found this pretty interesting to watch. To bad he was on the far side of the airport. I also took quite a few Corporate Jet shots if anyone is interested.

In a 152? Wow. God bless him...  ;D

I heard a story once about a C-152 pickup that went awry: as soon as he snagged the banner the tail ripped right off the plane, just forward of the empannage. Fortunately, he was so low already he just rolled out.
Probably a hangar tale, but it's fun.

The thrust to drag ratio on a 152 is already bad enough without a banner behind it.  Although, I do know of a guy who modified a 152 with a 180 hp engine.  :o

Roughrider, I wouldn't mind seeing the bizjet shots you have if you're still willing to share.
