I may have flown my last time in a T-6.
The formation solo marks the end of the road for Navy folks who don't select/track Tactical Aviation. To quote an instructor, "it's the most fun, scariest time you will ever have in an airplane." So true. I flew across from my roommate, JT Morgan, for 75 minutes, most of that time positioning our aircraft within 10 feet of each other. Crazy! It's wild that they let us do that.
To make things even more insane, I was the only person in my plane.
The flight was awesome. The most smooth and controlled I have felt in a long time, in the plane. Really exciting to do all those maneuvers, even a loop, with another airplane in trail.
One of those days, I would have flown for free.
