Astonishing !

I've only ever seen a single loop in B & W on the 1988 BBC. series Reaching For the Skies.

Seeing a double-loop (back to back) at such low-altitude is showing SUPREME confidence in the "strong as an ox" Tri-Motor.

Awesome piloting skill & an amazingly tough 'old-tin-bird'

Re: Harold Johnson's Ford Tri-motor aerobatic routine in color

Pretty impressive flying. Kind of large plane to be thrown about like that. I have only seen one Ford Trimotor in the air before, and it was going low & slow.
 

Brewster Buffalo, Hawk 75A, Fokker D.XXI, Polikarpov I-16, Fiat G.50, Macchi C. 200, PZL P.11c, Fieseler Fi 156 Storch ,,,, now those are real planes.
