Tuesday, July 17, 2018:
The barnstorming fun continued at the Brainerd
Lakes Regional Airport. Root beer floats were $1 and popcorn was just 5 cents per bag, as it was back in the 1920s. |
 |
 |
 |
|
Lots of rides
were given that day in vintage open-cockpit planes by
American Barnstormers. |
 |
 |
|
Then Ford owners showed up in their vintage cars. |
 |
|
This young lady decided she wanted to drive a car. Hmmmm. Mark said, "Give women the right to vote and then they'll want to drive a car! What is this world coming to?" |
 |
|
A stunt pilot
put on a show for the crowd while trailing smoke. |
 |
 |
|
He finally
landed trailing smoke. |
 |
|
Yes, he was the master
of the sky for a while that afternoon. |
 |
 |
|
Then two
military jets appeared in the sky. |
 |
|
The crowd was
thrilled with a fly-by. Loud too. |
Quote of the day:
Always fun to see airplanes. Mark
