Pete Fleischmann Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 Flew a jet Provost today in formation with an L-39 owned by my good buddy “Lunch”. That’s my wife and former T-38 IP in the back of the L-39, giving Lunch the finer points of flying jet formation. good times! cheers Pete LSP_Ray, Michael931080, Starfighter and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Alan Hi Alan, I liked it. mostly. I will say that the Rolls Royce Viper engine that was in it had excellent response time/acceleration. It was surprisingly light on the controls as well. it had some clumsy, vintage systems, which gave it character. The Brits really like their big fuel petcocks! (Even the BAe Hawk has one) looking forward to flying it again! cheers, Pete Starfighter, Dope737, alaninaustria and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stokey Pete Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Haha, that’s a brilliant story. I’ve never seen the show, but I’ll have to seek it out when this episode airs. Sounds like you had a blast, even if your pax suffered somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggernut Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I was just on one of those this past Saturday from VPS to ATL...nice, quiet plane. It's noticeably quieter than the Bombardier CRJ900 I flew from ATL to MDT....and I was in the front of the cabin.
