Boeing Stearman biplane oops!

Post by nigelb »

A little local excitement at KDCA as a vintage 1943 Stearmen tips over on landing. The plane carried a reporter from The Washington Post who had a video camera rolling at the time. Check the video at the bottom of the article. Looks to me like the brakes were applied way too soon.
