"After the war ended, some of these pilots used the skills they had mastered by barnstorming to earn a living, traveling across the country performing stunts and providing rides. [1] It was helpful that the US government was selling plentiful now-surplus Curtiss JN-4 Jenny trainer biplanes for as little as $200; [1] 90% of American World War I pilots had been trained using the Jenny. [2] It was a two-seater, so paying passengers could get their first taste of flying and wing walkers had a place to wait to perform. Barnstormers would often land in a local farmer's field and negotiate to put on a show there, hence the "barn" in barnstorming. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good+ .
