  • Welcome to the Stunt Hanger.
I like it Mikey!
« on: October 09, 2011, 11:04:17 PM »
 At the recent September 24th-25th Broken Arrow contest in St. Louis, some of us stuck around and did some practice and fun flying on Saturday after the official flying was over for the day. Mike Schmidt from the Chicago area sent me this really nice pic of the PBY thumping along. I might have to get a print of this one done up for the shop.

 Thanks Mike! H^^

Wayne,
That is a great picture. Worth framing.
I gotta hand it to you. You are not afraid to build a unconventional platform for stunt.

That is a cool shot !!! Heck make a poster print out of it and hang it in the shop.

Mike has a real neat camera. I used it at the WKSI contest to get some shots of Mike. Just hold the button down and it will shoot a bunch of shots super fast. I told him I was wasting a lot of film. LL~ LL~ LL~

It is neat that you can just delete the ones you don't like. <=

That is one of the great things I learned about digital cameras.   I do like the PBY shot. H^^

Would anyone believe me if I told them that Wayne's PBY does the pattern?    ;D
