The barnstormers who introduced the airplane to the nation were the free-spirited stars of a distinctive age that tolerated - even applauded - daring men with a love for flying, a disdain for regulations and an indifference to danger. These early pilots live on in legend and, as here, in history. Jim Christman, known as Flyin' Fool Jim, was a barnstormer who went from pasture to pasture in the 1920s to perform aerial stunts and hop passengers. By 1930, he was Upside-Down Jim, airport manager and airshow star. As both witness to history and a professional historian, his son Al Christman, who grew up in the 1920s and '30s, shares the struggles of early pilots in the Great Depression, the challenges faced by their families and the government push to tame their daring excesses.
