Article with cockpit video taken by a reporter (and another at the bottom
of the page from someone from the side of the runway) show a Stearman
flip
on landing:


It made the evening news. What a sad sight!


Yep.

So, what is the verdict? I say too fast and high, tried to force it on with
a wheel landing, still had the tail high and touched the brakes. Don't know
about that last part, but he was definitely not done flying when he touched
down.
