One -more- hour in the T-2
« on: October 08, 2010, 10:58:03 AM »
One more hour in one of my favorite rides the T-2E Buckeye. Last week I was in 120 PEA (Air Training Wing) in Kalamata where I flew for an hour –as a backseater naturally- in a full training mission profile. The mission started with low navigation through the Taigetos Mountain in south Peloponnesus near Sparta, and then we practiced with another T-2 in 1Vs 1 engagement from 10K up to 24K. After that had a chance to take controls performing couple of rolls, a Split-S, an immelman and so on and then perform air-to-ground attack in Sxiza firing range. Was a great experience, bringing my totally jet hours to 6. Hope to enjoy pics. Sorry no video this time.










After the flight. The guy on the left has over 5000 hrs in the T-2!
