This subforum seems to fit this post, correct me if I'm wrong. My dad and I got the chance to fly in a L-29 with the Thunder Delphins Demo Team out of March ARB. We flew in formation and did some air work like rolls while in formation. An incredible experience that neither words nor video can put in to perspective. It was interesting to see some of the instruments and panel written in Czech. The pilot said it's not hard to fly, you just don't press the red buttons or anything dusty. ;D Here's the YouTube video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oB9k9rg2ljsAnd a few pictures, not as exciting as the video:

Way Cool Kobbe! Thanks for sharing the video and pix. There's a pretty nice freeware model of that plane on the download sites.
Thanks again Paul

Haha yeah, at first I didn't get the dusty part until I got in the cockpit and saw the panel written in Czech covered in dust. Ohhhh. I think I downloaded that model before, I'll have to download it again because it was in my old computer. Glad you enjoyed the pics and video.
