Out-of-work aviators flying out-of-work airplanes after the Great War. An American phenomenon, these barnstormers as they called themselves, wandered from East to West, performing in pastures, big city air shows, in Hollywood dramas. Offering $1 rides in their Curtiss Jennys, they often teamed up to perform spectacular stunts, now legendary. Walking on wings, changing planes, acrobatic stunts in full flight. Our Classic Barnstormer is a true miniature of the large ones, down to its fabric stretched wings and tail section.
