I was at Osh in 92 when Jimmy Franklin fliew the Kitfox in the
airshow. He'd done his routine in his black Waco and scared the
audience with an inverted pull out at 5 feet or so.


My stomach would churn watching Jimmy pull the WACO out so low that he
would disappear in the low ground behind runway 18/36. Exciting to
watch, but frightening, too.
