Flying over the campus of Parks College at KCPS. The school moved into St Louis in 1996. This Parks P-2A was manufactured here in 1929, although assembly was by Detroit Aircraft which marketed the P-2A as the Ryan Speedster for a while. During the 1960s this airframe was owned by modern barnstormer and writer Richard Bach.
