Default Had a fun day getting my BFR

Hi guys and Gals
I flew the 8 over to N14 today (Lumberton,NJ) and spent 1.1hrs in a T-6C getting my BFR done. Started off with all the usual stuff ( climbs turns etc..) then went on to the fun stuff, barrel rolls, cuban 8's, immelmann's and 4,8,16 point rolls. Then went back to shoot a landing, what a great plane! it's a big heavy bird but she is a lady;-)
After pulling back into our parking place a older gentleman and lady walked up and started talking to us, turns out he flew SBDs during WWII, very neat guy to talk with and he even complimented my landing;-)
It was a great learning experience and a real blast!!
Gotta get a round engine someday!
