- Produced by the department of the Navy for advanced pilot training in 1953, this is still an excellent primer on take-offs & landings (along with qualified professional instruction..) Probably the most produced "Advanced Trainer" in history, this aircraft was used by both the US Air Force (AT-6) and the Navy (SNJ) and by many other nations as the "Harvard." Renowned for her nimble, forgiving handling, it's only natural that this was the aircraft chosen when a double was needed for the Japanese Zero in numerous war movies and TV shows, including "Ba Ba Black Sheep" and "Tore Tora Tora!" This is the ship that thousands of pilots used to master more advanced skills before climbing into a real fighter.
There are still a lot of T-6s & SNJs in the sky today because there a great little aircraft.

Nice job man
During the Korean war, Navy trainees did their first solo in the SNJ. I don't know whether this was due to a new theory of training or a shortage of the Stearman biplanes used in World War II.
Phil Meyer, yup, my pops flew BB2's in Korea, but trained in these. Were you a Navy pilot too?
The best. Super Tucano FACH - Fuerza Aérea de Chile.
Interesting how they do a three wheel landing!
It becomes routine; the T 6 was a standard trainer in many air forces til the late 60s but before the (three tons 600 Hp) T 6 you had to learn & be able to solo fly a lesser and easier plane or planes.
Estas filmaciones NO enseñaban, pero SÍ servían para aclarar las ideas.
While a student at Academia Militar del Caribe outside Habana, Cuba I was sent to California Aircraft Institute in Los Angeles, California to receive a certificate as an Aircraft Navigator..later went to Texas to train to fly the AT-6 Texan , and P-38 plane .this took place back in the late 1950's. and never to return to Cuba due to Fidel Castro coup..here I am 53 years later in the U.S.A.
Nice to meet you!
(nice planes makes nice people, or so I like to think)
Felix you saw my background..are you from the Island also and do you still live there ?
I live in Majorca, Spain, Flew the T 6 in 1965 1967, Spanish Air Force.
Does anyone know what airfield this was filmed at?It looks like it could be my home field but not sure.
I gotta try that in my club's bonaza... announcing my intentions on one of the more lonely airfields of course.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know of a method to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the account password. I love any help you can give me.
