I was a Flying Instructor at Souris ,Man., flying Ansons a Twin engine SFTS trainer in the RCAF in 1943/44. and we had a Harvard , the Canadian version of the PT6 which we used to keep our hand in on single engine aircraft. A great Aircraft. The following year I transferred to the Royal Navy Fleet Air arm and ended up flying he F4U Corsair. I must say that my experience on the Harvard stood me in good sted

Nice! I love the sound of the 9 cylinder radial as they manoeuvre. There's one at our local air field and the owners company takes people up for joy flights in it. I've gotta take a spin in it before I die. 😁👍🏼

Nice!!! Very good!!!

My dad trained in the T-6 during Korean era at some airfield near Biloxi. I wish I could remember the name of his instructor... The guy flew the "Hump" during WWII and was apparently just the nicest person on the base.

Did you attend Parks College? I graduated in 74.

The AT-6 design was copied by the Japanese and turned eventually into the "ZERO" fighter. It had been lightened and had smaller fuel capacity in order to be agile And something about radial engine airplanes reminds me of Harley Davidson motorcycles...
