I think I saw this plane taking off from Greenville downtown airport a few month ago. Glad the crew was okay

I think that they need to work on those "crop dusting maneuvers" a little higher off the ground!

Is this Pat Hartness' Stearman out of Triple Tree?

Thank goodness everyone got out of that! :shock:
That looks like the very definition of "rolled up in a ball". Not much left.

Fly safe all.

I received an e-mail from Triple Tree today that referenced the crash then went on to say <essentially> "Don't do stupid and/or illegal stuff around our airport. We'd like it to be here for a long time."
