I don’t know whether the ‘take off attitude’ will grab the attention quite like the pose the old DC-3 had when I saw it in February. It certainly made you double take!
If anyone’s in the Orlando area – Polk City is a must-do visit, not to mention taking a ride in the New Standard pleasure flight biplane, or even some dual in a Stearman (at less than you’d pay for dual in a Cessna over here!)
And don’t forget, they have ‘our’ Sunderland. :p Wonder if it will ever fly again? 🙁
How did the DC-3 get positioned like that, is it weighted in the nose or held there with a bit of 2 x 4?
