This is me in the front of Frank Ryder's super chipmonk doing aerobatics during an airshow in Atlanta. I had the camera mounted on the wing with a remote to shoot during flight.

I actually shot a roll of 36exp. I don't get sick with things like this, but the key is to go to Waffle House first and eat a huge breakfast. He took my thru his whole batch of tricks which include a hammerhead into a backslide and finally a spiraling spin. Fun, Fun Fun! #396248Frederick A. Franzella February 25, 2004

Wow! You were mad enough to fix your camera of the wing!!! Moreover during an aerobatics airshow! That's great (and a little crazy too). I saw people doing this on gliders wings...but the flight conditions aren't the same as aerobatics!!! A strong picture!!!...and souvenir for you!Fred #466051

Hi Cathy! I was browsing through your gallery which has far too many great images in it to comment on separately but stopped short at this one as I instantly recognized the De Havilland Chipmunk.Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
