Back in the early 60's I was 10 years old. Got to ride in the co-pilot seat flying over to Middle Bass Is., Lake Erie, to ice fish with my Dad. What a memory!

[@robertbender1200]

I did the same trip. Will never forget it!

The engines must be warm, they didn't smoke near enough!

[@thenorthwestohiorailfan3007]

Yeah, they flew in that morning. Video was taken probably 2 hours after their first flight of the day
