At my club we want to take some air to air photographs of a glider for

For what it's worth, a couple of the better air-to-air photos on my
wall were taken from the back seat of a 2-33 with the window open. No
canopy distortion, high wing easy to bank out of the way, slow flight
not a problem.

Another good platform is the J-3 Cub with the door open, for the same
reasons. In both cases, the pilot flying was NOT the photographer.


Slingsby T21 - open cockpit, 2 seats side-by-side, flies at just over 30
knots - don't bother if it's a windy day!
