South African T6's

Hey folks,

I believe there is an outfit in South Africa who own a small fleet of T6's and offer training including formation training on the type.

Can anyone tell me first of all who they are and have any of you flown with them, especially those who have undertaken formation training with them.

I have a bit of experience with both the T6 and formation flying but would love to put the two together if possible with some other like minded individuals and preferably in a flying group rather that a pleasure flight company, if you know what I mean.

Please dont critisise me for such a crazy money burning idea. I loved the aeroplane and want to be involved in some serious training on type towards solo it if possible.

Any stories about the type and the outfit eagerly awaited.

Thanks all

Ok.... found em! (The Harvard Club of South Africa) Anyone flown with them?

I kick myself to this day for failing to grab onto one of the South African T-6's when the Air Force released them some years ago. They were affordable, and the nicest and best equipped T-6's I've ever seen.
