Would like to Ride on Top of a Bi-Plane. Any takers

[99toLife]

I have always wanted to ride on the top of a Bi-plane anyone out there have a connection to make this happen.

I have always wanted to fly a biplane, but I don't think I could ever convince myself to stand on a wing or anywhere besides sitting in the cockpit.  So that's no help for you, but I do love biplanes.

I have flown in one before but I have this crazy thing about riding on the top wing. I hope I can find somene that can make it happen.

Thanks for responding and if you here about anyone let me know.

As long as you are willing to pay, and travel to where its done... I think its possible. I have heard of an outfit, I think in Arizona, that does it. Its not your typical $500 pay for the thrill type of airplane ride though, I am sure there is training and such.

You could always find a bugsmasher that flys an ag cat and a ratchet strap, as long as you don't mind a couple hundred feet agl (max) they may not even charge ;D

PLEASE seek counseling for your "unique condition". 
Would you do it with a parachute or without?

I've always wanted to fly in a bi-plane too. Not on the top wing though.

here you go: http://www.westcoastspindoctors.com/wing_walking.html

and it looks like the package is $850... cheaper than i thought... i dont think you will find any outfits out there that would just let you ride... to get the experience you will probably have to go the wing walking training route...

i would rather pay the $350/hour and get the spin training in that stearman. that would be sweet, my budget would call for the Citabria tho...

Reminds me of the story I heard from a crop duster back when we were playing softball all over the country.

I don't remember how it came up but one of his buddies decided he wanted to stand on the wing of a crop duster and they fly over the Mississippi River. That wasn't good enough so a group put some money up and dared him to jump off the wing into a chute off the river. He pulled it off and collected if the story is true. Knowing Teddy he would have tried it but I still doubt it.

Now that is crazy, I just want to ride on top.  I have talked to a couple of places both are on the west coast...I keep telling them I DON"T want to go from the seat to the top of the wing while we are flying... I'M 50 with a Bad arm from a Motorcyle wreck ( NO BP jokes I was really alone )..  My wife is not happy but said I can't stop you... gotta love her.
