Mustang! Thunderbolt! Hellcat! Corsair! Spitfire! Hurricane! These and many of the other great Allied fighter aircraft of World War Two are highly familiar to a great many people and to everyone interested in aviation history. All of these aeroplanes and the valiant pilots who flew them did their very crucial part to ensure the Allied victory over Nazi Germany and the Empire of Japan.
However, what all of these pilots who flew these aeroplanes, all of the celebrated aces and all of those who flew with them have in common is one aeroplane, one which is not nearly as well-known or popularly celebrated — the North American (NAA) T-6, or AT-6 as it was called in the U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF), SNJ in the U.S. Navy (USN) and U.S. Marine Corps (USMC), and “Harvard” in the Royal Air Force (RAF) and Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). Virtually every one of the pilots who flew against the Nazi and Imperial Japanese air forces, learned the art and craft of combat flying and honed their aeronautic skills to a diamond- sharp tip in the AT-6 before they were given leave to go into harm’s way in Mustangs, Hellcats and Spitfires.
Compared to those mighty and oft-heralded fighter aircraft, the relatively obscure AT-6/SNJ is the common bond that ties all of these pilots together and which enabled them to “go forth and vanquish the foe” so successfully. Many thousands of young, eager pilots owe their very survival in the mad swirl of aerial combat and the rest of their lives thereafter to the lessons they learned whilst in the cockpit of an AT-6, so successfully and profoundly did this humble aeroplane perform its role and do its duty.

just excellent ………..

This a great aircraft and the rotary engine is pure power and A2A modeled it both visually and mathematically in a brilliant fashion!

This is an excellent aircraft to own and look after. I was lucky enough to have a short flight in two years ago at Goodwood UK and the A2A version rally brings back those great memories.

What can I honestly say? It’s an A2A product, it’s honestly brought one of the best experiences I’ve had in the sim so far, what more can you expect from a developer of this standard. They’re amazing, and so is the T-6!

In my opinion A2A really hit a homerun with the T-6 Texan. The flight dynamics and ground dynamics are absolutely fantastic. This is a great platform to practice everything from snap-rolls to loops to a split S and to be able practice them using proper techniques. One must also really give a nod to the attention to detail with the systems, in particular oil settling into the lower cylinders, if you forget to drain this off using the oil clean kit you can expect some bent engine pieces. After having your fun up in the skies be prepared for a little toe dancing on the landing. Getting the landing down perfect without throwing it for a ground loop is something to be proud about.

The only tiny thing that I do not like about the FSX version of the A2A T-6 is the cockpit night lighting. It’s more a dome light and generally to bright. To my great surprise A2A completely overhauled the cockpit night lighting for the P3Dv4 version of the T-6. Now you have a freely adjustable lamp with the perfect amount of brightness to fly at night. Really a great update to an otherwise perfect addon.
