<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1206765, member: 12789&quot;]My grandmother fascinated me with tales of her youth - getting a flying eagle cent in change one time, but it was a lot of money even in the late 1920&#039;s so she spent it on candy.&nbsp; One of my favourite stories was sometime when she was about 9-10 years old a Curtiss Condor landed during a fair where she grew up.&nbsp; It was a lot of money, but her father paid $5 each for her and her brother to be able to fly on the plane - and she recounted(to my laughter) how hard it must have been for the pilot to keep the plane level with a load of kids in the back running back and forth from window to window looking out to their town below.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
