Formation Flying with Mysterious Black RV(joke)
During morning landing practice I was joined by a mysterious dark black RV-6A doing landings with me. He is a very good pilot. Several times he tucks in real close. Never did get a chance to speak to him but I think he may be on this forum. I hope to buy him a coffee next time he shows up.

unbriefed?
It looks like he almost hit you a couple of times. Next time maybe you should get a formation briefing first.  I suppose a wrist watch and a calendar would be the best way to tell when to expect him again.

Easy to catch on final, but boy was he fast on the go-'rounds! Tough guy to fly wing on, eh! ...But it makes a cool vid! Fun!
Cheers,

He must have a constant speed prop, because you're getting seriously sucked on the climb-outs.
