It was late afternoon at work, we had the doors open, and the sounds of a radial prop engine are wafting through the shop. We all head over to the door and watch as a biplane, over the airport, was doing loop-de-loops, wing overs, figure 8s, and all kinds of nifty tricks.
I'm unaware of any upcoming airshows or other events,don't know whay he (or she) was there but it was really cool the see and hear that thing buzzing around for about 20 minutes.
That's all... Namuch else is goin on.

BTW, what generates all of the smoke??
 
I've got an answer! Today there was a wing walker on the upper wing. The plane was out several times today doing all kinds of stunts.
heres a local news story
Wingwalker Carol Pilon
 
It's a Stearman. Probably has a P&W R-985 under that fancy cowling and swinging that Hamilton-Standard Hydromatic prop.
