Waren King was the wing walker, he would just climb all over that old Jenny one of his favorite tricks was to hang by his knees from the shaft in the landing gear. look close an you will see that he has no harnes on the top wing like most wing walkers of today use. BSF nicks friend

Waren King: Was not just their wing walker, he was their mechanic. When he was standing on the top wing he would have his feet stuck in to shoe boxes mounted on the top wing, an hang onto a cable fastened to the front of the upper wing, it took a great deal of strength as well as a lot of skill an nerve To be able to just stand their while the pilot is performing aerobatics. Today the wing walkers have a post mounted on the top wing that they strap themselves to during the aerobatics part of their performance. BSF nicks friend

Dick Copley is Terrys father, the other gentleman is Terrys grandfather on his mothers side, I believe his name was Talbot. Dick worked for Hank Halstead who had the lease on the airport at that time. BSF nicks friend
