I was a lot of fun, kind of like flying a 40,000lb T-6. I definately need to get used to flying for longer than an hour though.

Haha, yea I squeeze in there. Its roomier than the 206 and 58AC I flew before (but not a whole lot more). My knees go over the top of the cyclic. Luckily I can open my legs up enough. ![]() |

We have spent the past 7-8 days flying round the clock doing lots of airdrops, dirt landings, engine running up/downloads, NVG work, ect. All of it Afghanistan flying based training scenarios. Always a good time.
I flew a couple nights but spent a lot of time on the drop zone and landing zone. Later this summer I am headed to Army Pathfinder School. Should kick this old mans ass. With no rest for the wicked, here in a few days we roll into our annual fire fighting training with the Forest Service. Some pics from earlier this week on dirt runways.

He said the school was a cast iron bitch. Good luck, and thank you for your service. |

Its just a still from a video that I haven't gotten around to converting and editing. Power on stall with a wing drop on my recent Private checkride.
Wheel landing to finish off the checkride since I did my Private training in a tailwheel. |

Anything with piston engine should not be considered a helicopter. |

Nice, France is not a bad place to spend a few days.

Tag for cool pics. I'm not a pilot, but I load bombs and missiles on F-16s. Loaded the F-15C/D at Eglin for 11 years. Currently at Luke in Phoenix.
