A stunt plane performing at an air show at the old Ottumwa Municipal Airport on North Court Road. The pilot has just flown upside down under a rope strung across the field and is pulling up. The runway at the airport was surfaced with cinders, to keep it from being too muddy for takeoffs and landings.
