I'm convinced I'm the only person who didn't take this picture while in a T6.

You realized there is absolutley nothing cool about a T-6

Well this is not a self portrait and it’s not me but it’s a good picture of my dad going vertical over Cubi Point. I can get a cool self portrait of me in the 172 on request...:icon_wink

Awesome pic, loadtoad. Any idea about what year that was taken?

Will ask him tomorrow but I think it was either 75 or 76.

Thanx. No need to ask. Just a little after my time. And it explains why I had never seen it before. Still a great pic, though.

You sure haven't gotten any prettier Schnugg.

I don't have a self portrait, but here is a home town newspaper clipping about me graduating jump school.
