Aerobatic Team Wingwalkers History.).
Team Guinot of AeroSuperBatics Ltd (previously known as The Utterly Butterly Wingwalking Display Team and before that The Crunchie Wingwalking Display Team) as of 2010 are changing their sponsor to Breitling and will be known as The Breitling Team or Breitling Wingwalkers. The Breitling Wingwalking Team are based at Rendcomb in Gloucestershire and are the only formation wing walking team in the world. They generally use two Boeing Stearman aircraft but sometimes use up to five for their displays.
Demonstration choreographed routine.
These aircraft perform a well choreographed routine which includes a variety of loops, rolls and turns, whilst the girls demonstrate their skills by doing acrobatic manoeuvres while they are strapped to the top of the wings of the aircraft. The girls face speeds of up to 150mph and up to 4G of g-force. The wing walkers even climb back into the cockpit when they have finished their display while the aircraft is still in motion. Wing walking has been around since the 1920s and seen at air shows and barnstorming events. The first wing walker to perform daring stunts was Ormer Locklear, it is rumoured that during World War I during his pilot training in the Army Air Service he first climbed out onto the lower wings. It is also said that after this anytime an aircraft had a mechanical failure he climbed out of the cockpit onto the wings.

P-75 Stearman Kaydet
The Stearman (Boeing) Model 75 is a biplane used as a military trainer aircraft, of which at least 10,626 were built in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. Stearman Aircraft became a subsidiary of Boeing in 1934. Widely known as the Stearman, Boeing Stearman or Kaydet, it served as a primary trainer for the United States Army Air Forces, the United States Navy (as the NS & N2S), and with the Royal Canadian Air Force as the Kaydet throughout World War II. After the conflict was over, thousands of surplus aircraft were sold on the civilian market. In the immediate postwar years they became popular as crop dusters, sports planes, and for aerobatic and wing walking use in air shows.
The Kaydet was a conventional biplane of rugged construction with large, fixed tailwheel undercarriage, and accommodation for the student and instructor in open cockpits in tandem. The radial engine was usually uncowled, although some Stearman operators choose to cowl the engine, most notably the Red Baron Stearman Squadron.
Post-war usage
After World War II, the thousands of primary trainer PT-17 Stearman planes were auctioned off to civilians and former pilots. Many were modified for cropdusting use, with a hopper for pesticide or fertilizer fitted in place of the front cockpit. Additional equipment included pumps, spray bars, and nozzles mounted below the lower wings. A popular approved modification to increase the maximum takeoff weight and climb performance involved fitting a larger Pratt & Whitney R-985 Wasp Junior engine and a constant-speed propeller. An iconic movie image is a Stearman cropduster chasing Cary Grant across a field in North by Northwest (the airplane that chased Grant was actually a Naval Aircraft Factory N3N Canary; the plane that hits the truck is a Stearman). Christopher Reeve and Scott Wilson are shown flying 1936 variants in the 1985 movie The Aviator.
