If you want to go up, pull back on the controls. If you want to go down, pull back farther.

I was bringing a 140 I bought back from Wisconsin to Utah several years back and spotted these trees in the shape of an arrow. I think somewhere in nebraska. Hadn't really thought about them until I looked back through some pictures. Does anybody here know what they were used for???
There were several of them over many miles.

Well, there's no "window" on the Stearman, how about out of the cockpit?

There were several of them over many miles.

These are just shelter belts..trees planted by man (not nature), they may be used to shelter cattle when they feed them in the winter, erosion control, or wherever the land owner wanted them..usually seen near farm or ranch buildings..sometimes planted by the Natural Resource Districts. Lots of these in western Nebraska. HC

As someone who has been grounded for the past two years, I cannot explain how much I enjoyed all these photos. Just incredible. It gave me that feeling again.

Please keep them coming.
