Half the reason I watched Smokey and the Bandit as a kid growing up.
In reply to Pete. (l33t FS) :
I rode on a shuttle bus with her to Burbank airport a few years ago...regrettably, she didn't ask me to take my hat off.

It looks a bit like a DH4, but those did not have swept wings either. Probably one of the many small manufacturers back then?
According to Google Image Search, it's a 1917 Standard J-1 owned by Walt Bow. I can't link the EAA's Facebook post but the photo is from Nov 16, 2021. The Standard was used to supplement the more popular JN-1.

I never trusted people who could get their ankles, knees, and butt on the ground all at the same time like that.
Even when I was a kid if I had sat down like that, I'd have never stood up or walked under my own power again.

This may belong in that other thread, but you ain't a girl, so you cant do that...
Hmmmm... So, you are saying you don't trust women, then?

I tried to find a picture of a Japanese woman sitting in the wariza position (how Ms. Field is sitting) but all I get are anime characters.

No, I knew boys who could do that. And I knew girls who couldn't.
In Japan called the Wariza position. Gotta be limber and have good knees, the Seiza (on right) is better for posture.

Or weird ankles. I can sit like that at least on the right side, because my right ankle or shin or something is twisted out.
When I drive my RX-7, my right heel is under the clutch pedal.
Finally visited the Peterson. Damn, what a place! Was looking at this Mercedes thinking "If there's a better looking car out there, I don't know what it is"
