Picture of the day: Not like Sean

By General Aviation News Staff · December 17, 2017 ·

Brett Godown of Salinas, California, sent in this photo, with quite a story to tell: “Funny story, Sean D. Tucker of Team Oracle walks into my office and during our conversation I show him the airport’s flight simulator. While demonstrating the capabilities of the simulator I decided it would be fun to do a loop in a 172. I jokingly said, ‘look Sean, I am just like you.’ Within 30 minutes I am along for the ride in his Extra doing formation aerobatics. Well, being that I fly a Grumman AA-1 and do not regularly experience 4 G’s (positive and/or negative), for about three hours following the flight, my body let me know that I was certainly not like Sean.”
