T-6 over Dallas on Saturday 3.22.08

[Ztex]

So anyone know who was flying this T-6 around Dallas last Saturday afternoon? I would love to see if they had a camera on board....

There was also a yellow T6 over Plano on Saturday afternoon. Doing continous circles for awhile and then heading back North, maybe out of McKinney airport.

That third shot has the N Number in it if your original has good enough resolution to read it. A search on the FAA registry would at least give you the owner, and possibly who was flying it.

I have found which airplane it is ...current info has it based is Washington...But the FAA says it's local..Rockwall, TX

If its the same T-6, it departed Lancaster Saturday AM and headed north..

You don't even need to do that - just put the N number in Google.............

The Yellow one from Lancaster is owned by Jason Railsbeck and is 49-3550.

Thanks, I should have looked at my photos from the open cockpit day, I have several shots of it. He must know someone in Plano as he was buzzing someones house and making a guy at the gas station very worried he was going to crash.

Obviously, the aircraft has been turned over to first week AvCads...

N3518G didn't even tell Rudy he had hit him at OSH, just flew away.

Happened here at Salem a couple years ago. A friend in his Stearman drove over a C-172 wing-tip to wing-tip. It was ugly!!

N3518G didn't even tell Rudy he had hit him at OSH, just flew away.

Isn't that grounds for an FAA certificate action? Leaving the scene of an aviation mishap?
