Editor’s note: This is the latest installment in our weekly series called simply the “Friday Photo.” Each week we’ll share a great photo taken from the cockpit – one that shares the joy, beauty or fun of flying.

Gareth Williams is founder of Fly-Hope-Dream, a 501(c)3 nonprofit providing flight experiences to families who’ve lost a child. He recently flew his 1942 Stearman from Pennsylvania to California to reposition it in Santa Paula (KSZP). Gareth began flying gliders in the UK, soloing in 1977. He now holds a Commercial Certificate and Instrument Rating and is studying to become a CFI. He has flown everything from 152s to Super Decathlon and Cirrus. But nothing beats the Stearman! Having quit the corporate world 3 years ago, he is now living his dream – hopping rides to people who really need a “lift.”
