Awesome
Ha ha - love it, mate!
Something else for you, John.
As far as I know the AT 802 is the largest single engine aircraft in production (MTOW 7257kg), with a payload of 3000L or just over 4000kg.
Used as an aerial spray rig (crop duster) or for water bombing during bushfires. The blokes that fly these all have a few screws loose, I've had a couple of the pilots tell me that you're not a real AirTractor pilot unless you've put at least a couple down in a paddock... very reassuring.

FB Al were the aircraft doing pylon racing like they do at the Reno Air Races?
I must dig out my Reno pics from 1994. Can't believe that was over twenty years ago now. I also went to Skyrace Tasmania in LST plus the launch of the Boeing 777 in SEA so 'twas a great year for aviation.
Keep sending him up.
