Oliver,

I was on the set one day when we mounted a camera on the nose looking backward into the front cockpit. We took up the lead girl, Joanne Vanicola, and did a few loops and rolls, she loved it and wanted to do more after the film ran out. We than took up the lead guy, funny can't remember his name, and after two loops he ripped off the leather helmet and threw up into it, nice. Lou Gossett is a nice guy but never went flying while on the set. We used three Harvards, a Waco YMF-5, a Cub and Murray Kot in his Stearman. As well, Norm and Kent Beckham from the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association did a nice aerobatic routine. It was good money for the operators of the aircraft and lots of fun but a poor product in the end.
