• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Texan or Stearman?

HA...
I was slightly worried as I'm not huge into the roller coaster type thrills, and today it was quite windy... the sock was full and it was probably gusting to about 20... The pilot, Waldo Wright, said that if our airport didn't have that grass strip, we wouldn't have been flying.

It was a sweet ride and really nothing like I imagined. I took just a short hop, & I bought my old man the 30 min flight where they do a maneuver then you do the same yourself. Waldo is a pretty neat guy, all 8 feet of him! Seriously, he's a rather tall fellow.

Here's his website:

Hehe, great stuff. That website is very smooth- it looks like the operation has a real class and atmosphere.

The next obligatory question is (of course), when will you go back and do the T-6 flight ;) ?

Dan.
 
Next year probably... My today the price was $100 for about 15 min intro flight... I think the guy is local to Columbus since he left early Saturday to make it to the big Buckeye game.
