We went on summer vacation Back in March and the PT-19 had disappeared. The miss them greatly as we had started in the pleasure of flying. "Goodbye Farchilitos" he said. But the change was overwhelming, we entered the modern era, retractable landing gear, sliding plexiglass cabin, heating, radio communication with the instructor, with the control tower and other aircraft. Were the T-34 Mentor Beechcraft fresh out of ... beautiful, silvery, fast.

quickly get used to them and always with the same instructors, which gave us more confidence. The big difference was the landing. Lay the plane on the main gear and then let gently down the nose wheel was very different from Fairchild had, with great difficulty, landing on three wheels at the same time ..
After already feel comfortable with the T-34 began to make mischief.
My roommate named Mecina was a very nice guy but crazy to fly. One day the two were flying at the same time told me to go with him to show me what he had learned. As the radius of the aircraft was open communication were all listening to each other. But if you were flying high mountains behind no one could hear what was said between two planes. We were behind some mountains. I saw his T-34 as a few hundred meters ahead, and suddenly went into a loop to catch up with me getting very close to my right wing I could see her smiling face as long as the radio tells me - Speeds hundred and sixty miles and keep the speed I'm going to wrap on a roll. - Nooo! - I shouted over the radio. He continued - "Do not move and hold that position! - I saw his nose down and accelerate at the same time initiating a roll to his left ... I wanted to die, I could not do anything, He was screwing around me! He spent spent about five feet above my head as she watched him with laughter and shouted over the radio - Mecina, you're crazier than a goat! ! Out! ! Go away, we'll kill you both! - I saw him disappear beneath my airplane. More Later after I went to the casino land and found it there. I wanted to hang but other guys grabbed me and said anything but it was nice and could not report as I calmed down and I advised him to stop that madness. Mecina
