Roger
Lehnert
is one of the East Coast's most entertaining and unique airshow performers. Roger's first plane was a 1930's vintage Taylor J-2 Cub that he found in the back of a barn. Since then, Roger has been involved in several airplanes, including the building of a Pitts Special aerobatic biplane, which he flies in International Aerobatic Club competitions. Roger also restored a pair of Piper J-3 Cubs, one of which he uses in his thrilling airshow routine. The Cub's dependability and flyability, especially at slow speeds, makes the J-3 a natural for the climax of Roger's show. He takes off, and lands the plane, atop the "Teeny Weeny Airport," a Ford pickup modified with a heavy-duty suspension and a steel platform above the roof.

Skip Stewart will amaze you with mind-blowing gyroscopic tumbles, and precise, hard edged maneuvers taken from modern aerobatic competition, as he flies his Pitts Special S-2S during the airshow. Skip has been flying aerobatics for over fourteen years and competition aerobatics for over three years. He has won several competition flights and has been awarded the coveted Pitts Trophy.
