Flying Over Athens
Flying Over Athens

Unframed (shrinkwrapped)...$500
I had a pilot friend that could do aerobatics (stunts), and we'd go flying over Athens, Ga. where we lived. Often friends would say they had seen us above, in the yellow bi-plane, doing stunts over the city. It was great, never felt queasy as centrifugal force makes you always feel upright, its the world that moves around you, under, side, then above! He like to shut the engine down, then kick it on about 500 feet above ground, about as close as you can get - you have one chance from that low. The guy who rented us the plane said "This guy is nuts!"
