PC-7 Ride in Chile

[zab1001]

I've met about 80% of the Chilean Navy Pilots in flight billets right now, it isn't a huge navy or anything. Anyway, I talked one of their Primary IPs into giving me a ride today. Here's a few pics of the Chilean Coast around Vina del Mar and Valparaiso.

(Oh yeah, the plane was pretty sweet too. I haven't done any aero in forever, good times. No radar control equals fun-zo, I'll leave it at that)

VT-1? Back in Primary, huh? The more things change, the more they remain the same ...

Great looking countryside. I LOVE'd Santiago when I was driving down there for "BI".

Who's in the front seat picture? You or Sr. Piloto Chileano?

Nice. So let me ask this, how are you adjusting to working and living in Chile? I'm guessing you are having a day at the beach by those pix!
