Dollar Ride Tomorrow!!!

[brotherBONES]

Weather permitting, tomorrow will be my first time up in the air in the T-6!!!!

[brotherBONES]

So I have the greatest job ever! First ride today went awesome!

 

Did some basic G-exercises and some steep turns, then we hit up some aerobatic maneuvers. We did a few aileron rolls, a loop, then finished up with a split s... even though we weren't supposed to do aerobatics!

Nice, what kinda engine does that thing have?

[brotherBONES]

Pratt & Whitney PT6A-68 turboprop. Jet engine that has about 1100 shaft horsepower for our planes.

Your day was *much* better than mine

 

Edit: not being negative, just saying how nice it must have been to be up there cruising around!

"Not supposed to" do aerobatics?! You're supposed to progress on to them though, right? Aerobatics tend to be a part of upset recovery training.
