Have to give prompts to the "OTHER" forum for this.

Think it might evoke some emotions.

That's pretty neat. He's an active pilot too, I'm sure he enjoyed it

I can't stand having an O2 mask on for more than an hour or so, that suit would drive me nuts.

One of the many, many, many reasons Top Gear is my favorite TV show, and the wife's as well.

Wonderful! Two thumbs up!

James May owns an American Champion Decathlon which is a modern version of the Aeronca Champ!

One of the many, many, many reasons The United States of America is my favorite country, and the wife's as well.

Lucky bastage!!! I guess it's one of th' perks of th' job.

...just th' opinion of one insignificant inhabitant of a left over dust mote. :wink:

Excellant. Didn't know U2's still flew.

 

[aeronca65t]

U2s will fly for another few years. Then they'll be fully replaced by unmanned aircraft of similar design.

At this point they are not really used much for spying (satelites do most of that), but they are used for other scientific studies.

Anything ya need a pressure suit to fly is amazing. That bird is so long lived it's gotta be "paying back" by now.
Wonder what the "donation" was for Captain Slow's ride.

A two-seater U2?!?! Just a high ticket carnival ride now. As I said: lucky bastage.

It'd be nice if they started giving rides in the Blackbird. "C'mon, let's SEE what this baby'll do!"
