The next mission was a Saturday morning breakfast flight from
Tulla homa to Big South Fork Air park, ap proximately 100 miles away.
An other perfect morning flight, albeit a bit cool. Originally, we
intended to use the museum’s A36 for a photo mission with N3735B,
but really didn’t want to pull the door off given the tem per ature. Our
photographer adamantly agreed.
The weather didn’t prevent a training session on the way back,
as forma tion guru Robert Siegfried II instructed me on the finer points
of station keep ing, or maintaining a constant position relative to
another airplane in flight. This was quite a workout, considering both
the distance and the rough air. A few good photos came from this
outing, even though the airplane was
in focus one second and completely
out of frame the next.
