North American T-6 Texan Trainer in Banking Flyby, Lloyd TN Air Museum Air Show, June 7, 2014
A North American T-6 Texan advanced trainer banks overhead during a flyby demonstration at the Lloyd Air Museum air show in Tennessee, June 2014. Developed in the late 1930s, the T-6 (known as the SNJ in U.S. Navy service) trained thousands of Allied pilots during World War II and remained in service as a primary advanced trainer into the 1950s and 60s. Its distinctive radial-engine growl and rugged airframe made it a favorite among postwar civilian owners and remains a popular warbird at air shows today. Project: 219309
