Beaut shots Merv.
Seeing those Mentors reminded me of the company in the USA which provide 'dogfight' experience, flying mentors equipped with reflector sights and camera 'guns'. Think the were called 'Dogfighters Inc', possibly based in California, back in the early 1990s. Always fancied getting there to 'have a go', but I think they stopped trading (or were forced to by the FAA ?) before I had the chance.

Terry, the T-34s they were using were not qualified to do the Gs they were being put through and started falling out of the air due to main wing strut failure if memory serves me correctly. Now all T-34s have to have a stronger wing strut installed to remain airworthy.

Very nice shots Merv! :notworthy:
 
Thanks Aaron - now I remember reading something similar at the time, probably in 'Fly Past' magazine. I did think that it was fairly aggressive flying for the type of aircraft being used. Shame, as if the 'right' type of aircraft was used, it would have been a great business.
 
Just finished two burns I wanted to share with everyone, I will post some aviation shots shortly. I just got through recovering from the dreaded Shingles, sorry I haven't posted for awhile, cheers.
