I found this great video from (must be) more than 50 years back:
https://youtu.be/gC3qLSTEPyg?t=58s
Smith 90P shows up around the minute mark and does a bunch of fly-bys and touch and goes every so often until the end. Apparently, it was shot at Flabob during an EAA Chapter 1 fly in during the late 50s or early 60s.
The Smith jumped out at me right away. I don't think I've ever seen it in color (I haven't been to the EAA museum) other than in a drawing on a magazine cover.
I think they're having a spot landing contest. There's a target painted on the runway and it looks like they're trying their best to hit it.
I though I'd share given I know that many of you have attachments to Flabob and the Smith.
