upndownshop 0 #1 October 29, 2007 From the Blue Angels Air Show in Muskogee Ok. this weekend. Well could you do it? The never got above 400', inside loops, hammer heads, rolls etc... In Oshkosh a few years ago I saw a father and son team with a jet engine mounted underneath a pitts (Airtwardo can correct if not a Pitts). That was an awesome sight. The son just walking around on dad's wings. Maybe delpoy from the top wing? Inverted with nose down, bet you would miss the tail Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

upndownshop 0 #6 October 29, 2007 Quote muskogee used to have nationals! so it was a great place for a boogie! Yes sir, thats actually why I went, to see the layout of the Air show. I had to go to Muskogee and Telequa(sp?) every year in July for Nationals. Mom was chief judge, hated getting up early to leave from Dallas to Ok. but loved it when we got there!!

NewGuy2005 53 #9 October 29, 2007 I believe it is a Stearman. I should say was. It was destroyed in an airshow accident a couple of years ago. The pilot, along with an airshow pilot from my area were both killed. You are right, though. I've seen their act. It was incredible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gimme a break, the sun was in my eyes, wearing my glasses, cupping the led screen so i could see, holding a notebook and the worst part, I only had one beer all day.
