Biplane Flight

For my upcoming birthday, my parents decided to give me a 45 minute aerobatic flight in a WWII trainer biplane. The flight took us over the Kennedy Space Center, where my dad works, and over to Cocoa Beach. The loops and barrel rolls were done over Cocoa Beach. The wing overs were done over land. I love tail dragger planes! My flight was moved up to last Saturday, because of my dad's work schedule. He was my flying buddy. The loops, barrel rolls and wingovers were very smooth. We enjoyed them!

If you go upside down in an open cockpit plane
you must have a parachute.

 Getting in is tricky
 I liked my seat!
 Heading to take off with KENNETH,
our pilot.
 I was excited!
My dad was excited!
 Isn't she pretty?
 I like being in the air!
 Nice
 It was a smooth landing

 That is my brother, Todd.
I don't think we could get him in this plane.
Well maybe in the plane,
but he would NOT want to do any loops in a plane!
 Who needs a car?
I am going to need a PLANE!
 Thank you, mom and dad!
