Go with him to Grand Gulf, Hemmed-In Hollow and Devil’s Den. Take an upside-down ride in a biplane piloted by one of the Ozarks best-known men, race across the Outback of Australia in a solar-powered car, ride in the dining car of a steam locomotive powered train, see the famous White River Line Railroad from the air and from the locomotive, float in a hot air balloon above Greene County and see Ed Fillmer fly with the Air Force Thunderbirds!
Ed’s profiles first aired on “KY3’s Ozark Life” stories during his 17 years as a reporter, photographer and producer at KYTV. They are now available to see on KY3’s “Ozark Life Online” archive for anyone to see.
