Decisions....decisions......new Sim PC or stick time!

[T6flyer]

and Stick time won, I'm afraid. For the cost of a new sim PC, spent an enjoyable afternoon having two flights in an ex-US Navy SNJ-5. After American service it later saw service with the Japanese and is believed to be the sole surviving JASDF
T-6.

Many thanks, but it's only there in the States that you can fly from the front seat! Maybe one day as the SNJ-6 or T-6F is my favourite sub model.

i have a lot of time in various T-6 models and that one yesterday was my 11th, with two more to fly this Summer. Seem to be going back more to the real thing now rather than the sim. That hour cost me £650 and I still think it was worth it.

Only time have flown from the front seat is when someone was being checked out to fly Spitfires as the back seat has the same amount of view or not!

Happy Landings,

Martin

You just look...too Happy. I tried doing a T-6 flight last year and it never happen. Looks like I need to go do it at 700 US, it seems like a steal.

T-6s for me seem to be a bit like busses for me - nothing for 13 years and then get two within a month! Today am at Duxford to fly what will be my 12th. This time an ex-Italian Air Force Harvard Mk.4. Have another lined up later in the year that of course will take me to 13. Not a good number for some, so perhaps need to hunt for something that will make the total an even number. After that I retire and so does my bank account!

Cheers,
