T-34B Mentor

CitationDrvr · 02-02-2008, 01:12 AM

I thought that I'd share a pic of a Beech T-34B Mentor that I flew back in 1999! That's me and my buddy Jim in there waving at you! This shot was taken over the beautiful city of San Diego in August. We had a C-172 chase plane with a Navy photographer who took the shot.
This particular aircraft can still be found at the North Island Navy Flying Club in NAS North Island, CA., although she is grounded for now pending some aeronautical issues with the wing spar. Cheers!

Cool pic. Were you based at NI?

Thanks Bill-ay. I was stationed at a helicopter squadron in North Island for 3 years.

It's a good shot, but it looks like it was more fun flying the plane. Thanks for sharing. Would love to see more of your HLS stuff...

Do you mean HSL? I was in an HSL squadron. Thanks for the compliment on the photo, but I visited your website and I think your pics blow it away!

Yeah, I did. Sorry, just a swapping of the letters. And thanks for the compliment. I just click a button.
