My BFF Doug went for a flight and made a beautiful video.

The plane is called a Great Lakes, they are flying out of Van Nuys California and along the coast of Malibu and back. Doing flips and rolls and all kind of stuff. The kat flying the plane is also the builder named Stu. Stu's shop is only about 30 yards from Doug's shop so we have been watching them put this thing together from scratch. A very talented group of individuals, the plane is just unbelievably gorgeous! Doug made a nice video with his Go-Pro's.
