Always cool to get the cover of EAA Sport Aviation magazine! I shot these guys at Oshkosh this year. We were limited on time and it was really bumpy. These guys pulled it off though!

When I just quickly glanced, the angle and color of the water almost made it look like they were flying inverted for a second, lol. I thought the water was "blue sky".
 
Jack, just wondering what the photo ship was for this shoot? I know EAA has an older 210 with baggage door removed.

These are the kind of photos that got me interested in flying. Great work! I never even thought about flying until a high school buddy took me in his Luscombe a couple of times and handed over a bunch of magazines with airplane photos like yours. Am sure you're introducing a bunch of new pilots into the fold.

Thanks for sharing this. I always hope my photos reach someone. The reason I post them here is because of the great feedback I get... sharing with like-minded pilots!

I grew up with two Uncles who were pilots, one of them ran an airport. I may have been the only kid who asked for subscriptions to Flying and Private Pilot magazines for my birthday. Now I mostly pay attention to the photos, but back then I read every article!
 
BTW, Jack, I think your photo on p.41 is even better, but of course the format wouldn’t have worked for a cover shot. It would make a beautiful centerfold, though!

Agree and thanks! I'll share more photos as soon as I can get them uploaded.
