Default RE: AT-6 reflections

The prop will do that on a vid. It doesn't in real life though.

My ride in one was fun too. The guys wife was telling me all about it and the seat belts and stuff. I was looking around not paying attention. She asked what I was looking for. I said "the stick isn't in". She says, "he never lets anyone fly his plane". The pilot turns around and says "hes a pilot, put it in."

He gave it to me as soon as the wheels broke ground. I tucked in tight on the one in front of us that we took off with. Flew about 15 miles and he took it back and said "GO". Huge dog fight. Was a blast. He said "break" and we went back into level flight. He gave it back to me and I tucked back in. Flew around town in tight formation and over the house I live in then. Flew it to short final. What a blast. He said he was impressed. You gotta like that.
