Another glaring omission from the
Houston Chronicle. This time, about the name of an
aircraft.A local pilot failed to break the American altitude record for a piston-powered airplane Saturday in Wisconsin but vowed to try it again — next time closer to home.
Despite good weather, Bruce Bohannon was only able to fly his modified homemade airplane to 45,500 feet, falling short of the American record of 47,910 feet set by an Air Force crew in a Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber over Guam in 1946.
Bohannon, 46, was disappointed but not deterred.
Check
here if you want to know the name of his plane:
PUSHY GALORE
It's quite an amazing plane. . .
