Hello Pierre,
Excellent capture of this aircraft in flight. Superb colours and clarity. So clear and sharp in fact we can see the faces of the occupants.

Bonjour Pierre,

J'aime vraiment beaucoup celle-ci. On est vraiment à la même hauteur et c'est impressionnant. Vous volez en formation assez serrée pour vous regarder dans les yeux.

Amicalement

Serge

Hello Pierre,
There are many airplanes shown on TE but most photos are taken from the ground, so this is a very rare photo from the same level. It's a marvellously sharp photo and a fantastic view of the ground. You must have had a amazing experience (unless you are a pilot yourself).
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Pierre
Not the kind of photo we see here often :) excellent mid air view and such an unusual image. Its perfect how the other planes occupants are looking at the lens add if your presence is unexpected. Great shot
Cheers

Great shot, Pierre,
As you can imagine I also have experience with An-2. Your photo reminds me my visit of the Riverside Air Show in California. Just outstanding point of view, excellent photo!
Perfect technical quality!
Best wishes,
Serghei

Bonjour Pierre Ça m'en bouche un coin!! Image très saisissante, pour toi à l'oeuvre dans un avion espion russe et pour nous tous qui vivons en couleurs ce souvenir d'alors et les regards défiants de la part d'ennemis à abattre! Un gros bravo et je te donne 100 points pour l'impact visuel.
Amicalement. Robert

Bonjour Pierre,
Wow, this is really spectacular. Apart from the fact that it is an excellent and very clear photo of this old aircraft, it is really fantastic that you got this side view whilst being airborne. Really nice that the crew was looking at you too, just too bad they didn't wave.

Olá Pierre,
um belo exemplar desse famoso T-6, porém fabricado sob licença pela Harvard. Boa nitidez e uma pena o fundo também verde para não contrastar mais, embora mostre uma característica militar importante, e que é a camuflagem. Belo trabalho.
Parabéns e Abraço,
Lucas

Bonsoir Pierre, Wonderful photo of this airplane. What a great advantage that you had to fly in the airspace with this airplane and get this great view .The green forest beneath the airplane looks like a large blanket ready to cushion any landing the plane might make. Of course that would be a sheer disaster. Regards. Have a great weekend.

Cheerrs Pierre, a magnificent on-the-air photo from plane to plane.
Bravo for this perfect one, good sight of the aircraft details, pilots faces and the landscape bellow.
My cong.'s et bon-weekend,
Ike

Hi Pierre,
Air to air views are quite rare here in TE. And such a classic plane is a perfect target with calm green forest background. It must be quite an experience to fly on An-2!
