This is a rather similar image of an already posted 'oldie' of my series 'People in the air'. I took this one because of the visual effect. This Boeing-Stearman Model 75 two seater biplane hasn't caught fire, but was using a nozzle mounted above the lower right wing to produce smoke. The 'Stearman' planes were built during the 1930s and 1940s for the United States Army Air Force (USAAF) and the United States Navy (USN). It was served as a primary trainer. The type of this one is the N2S-3 R-670. 1,875 ones of them were delivered to the US Navy only. After the WWII was over, a lot of the 'Stearman' were sold on the civilian market. A considerable number of them remain in flying condition throughout the world. This one too, so that I could captured it 'in flight but not in fire' (lol) above Zeeland, The Netherlands.

Hope you'll like this one too. Thank you in advance for your comment.
