I was driving across 380 heading East near Princeton close to 5:30 last night and saw a T-6 and a RV-4 doing a little play fight near a private field called the 'cotton patch'... wasn't you was it?

It may have been an 8, didn't get a real close look at it . Funny to see how really small it was flying formation with a T-6. It wasn't one of the Cavanaugh Flight Museums T-6's that are normally up there giving rides. Looked like a T-6 I see parked over at Aero Country with a black and white checker tail.

""and saw a T-6 and a RV-4 doing a little play fight near a private field ""

Isn't that incredible to watch? Our r/c field is very close to a local airport, and you can see the practice area from the field....a local pilot flies a super decathalon, and flies in mock dogfights against a buddy of his in an RV6. we've also seen him go against a cessna 150......i never knew a 150 could do some of the things i watched this one do.
the decathalon driver is an ex F4 driver btw.........i've flown with him.....very skilled

have fun guys1
