Well...if you have the cash..
« on: March 29, 2023, 04:52:18 PM »
Stockton California is close enough. If I had the cash I'd do it in a heart beat. I could afford the AT6 ride.

But the 17 ride would be the bomb .

Excuse the pun.

Last time it was in town, Yankee Lady was charging $450 for a ten minute ride. I never felt so poor in my life when I had to tell the boy we couldn't afford it.

The wife and sons surprised me with an AT6 ride at Warbird Adventures in Kissimmee

It was a blast as the pilot let me fly it and do some maneuvers - rolls and loops

A couple of years later the same plane and pilot had a fatal accident

The pilot was a very cool dude too...
