Dennis Finley took that photo at the National Stearman Fly-In, Galesburg, IL in ‘01 or ‘02. That's me in the cockpit with Brian Aukes, brother of world famous air show pilot Travis Aukes (Red Barron Pizza Team). Mike George owned it at the time. The George's allowed me to fly it from '99 'til 02, and I got to fly it again last summer. She now resides in Cincinnati (Clermont County, I69) at the Tri-State Warbird Museum, owned by David O'Maley, and maintained by Paul Redlich and the staff at the museum. We were at Thunder Over Michigan and Gathering of Mustangs and Legends this year. Here’s a link to the museum. http://www.tristatewarbirdmuseum.org/

You think your doing "ok" photographically speaking ~ until you see that actually you still need to think about raising your game another few notches .......

That is a really Awesome picture !

Heh, I attend these events with some of the best photographers that I'm lucky enough to call my friends... and their level of skill inspires me to take up video. ;)
