I am basically calling my old friends about jobs right now, not shopping to buy airplanes and this caught me by surprise. I'll check on Monday.
USMC- ever flown one?
No - never flew the T-34B.
Thought I was going to get a few hours in one prior to flight school when I was stashed with MAG-41 at NAS Dallas. The Base Flight Club had one on the line - but it was down and they said they didn't have enough money from the base to get it fixed
Ryan1234 -
Someone posted a job from one of those places recently - I think in the Phoenix area. To compete with the companies already out there - you are going to need something more sporty than T-34B. That school was flying the Extra 300s. Now show me a school flying those L-39s for the same job and I'll consider it!
