Hi Ed, nice catch. As Azz said that would make a great vantage point for a few shots

Yes, but the gondola is fairly small. I don't know what it was doing around here as there are no NASCAR races or anything else of interest right now. One possibility is some sort of engine overhaul/replacement as Lycoming aircraft engines are made here. When he saw me taking photographs, he changed course slightly and flew almost directly over me. You can see him looking down at me and smiling in a few of the shots. I was shooting up at angles of 45 to 60 degrees.

It's an odd and impressive looking thing when you think about it, isn't it? 
Good catch!
