[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 914623, member: 6354"] Yeah, the Stearman is amazing. He has one pass where he comes in at just about approach speed, yanks it up and throws it into a snap roll, and almost completely runs out of energy at the top, just barely still flying! The announcer described the engine stall while it was happening, but last time I saw the plane the announcer just let it happen, flame popping and all. Without warning, not even having had the description of not being rated for inverted flight, the crowd heard it shut off, and saw it belch flame, and your ears popped as 100,000 people sucked in all the air in a collective gasp. After all the ladies fainted the announcer then came on and described what we'd seen. Maybe somebody with some authority and no sense of humor was one of those who fainted one time! :o [/QUOTE]
