One day in Los Angeles, an airshow was scheduled at the Burdette Airport and School of Aviation. When the performers did not show up, MacDougall, a part-owner of the airport, persuaded Spider Matlock and Ken Nichols, two friends who had come to watch the show, to help him. According to Nichols, after five minutes of instruction, the pair performed as wing walkers, with MacDougall flying the airplane.

However, when the performers didn't show up, MacDougall, a co-owner of the airport, convinced Spider Matlock and Ken Nichols, two friends who had come to watch the event, to help him out. According to Nichols, after just five minutes of training, the pair took to the skies as wing walkers, with MacDougall at the controls.
