:shock: I don't intend to.

I recently have been sent some really neat scans of photos (more than 50!) from an L-bird pilot in WWII. Will have to see how/what I will share later on, but I thought I'd throw out this one for kicks. Wonder how many similar albums are out there. Hope they don't get thrown away!

It's great that you've been given the opportunity to save those images, Ryan. Sadly, many such albums have been lost or broken up over the years......

For some reason my Picasa account seems to be acting up. Hope you can see this picture. It's another from the album.

My source is flying the aircraft in the picture.

A barrel roll is a positive-g maneuver all the way around. A loop doesn't have to pull a lot of g.

Hmmm... Something like this?

:D That'd be fun, but I doubt I'm anywhere near good enough of a pilot yet.

You or anyone you know going to come down in a few weeks?
