You would really be lost if you follow the Interstate................there ain't one in Hondo, blink to many times and you'll be in Mexico!

Just remember that a successful gun shot consists of your aircraft being stabilized:

1 - In the same plane of motion as your target

2 - In range of your guns (2,000' to 3,000' for the 20mm HEI round - not sure what gun your Mentor was sportin' there)

and

3 - Your nose in sufficient lead pursuit for the rounds to impact the maneuvering target at that range.

For illustration purposes, something like this:

Sorry, Mike, looks to me like that's a "snap" shot at best. No kill awarded.

:lol:

P.S. Absolutely, positively GORGEOUS Mustang and photos!

So what are you saying... I wouldn't get the guy in this shot?

Oh and really nice Mustang shots

I thought the sign in Hondo says, "This is God's Country, please don't drive through it like Hell!"
