I have flown a stearman, and they are pretty stable. Saw a stunt pilot do a low level manuver at Oshkosh and he bought the farm. Risky business.

Condolences to his family. What’s that aviation adage ... “There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots.

You know, I love airshows and MotoGP racing. But, it’s hard to follow these activities faithfully, BECAUSE you can never find anything about them in the media unless there is a fatality.

Then, it’s front page news.

Grrrr.

R.I.P. He was heavily involved in EAA's "Young Eagles" Program, which I also support.
