A2A T-6 Texan Released!

[Ian Warren]

Here's one I'm working on.

Dave, that is so close to the late 1950s early 1960s RNZAF paint tho here they kept it metallic, the yellow bands at time they could make up there minds and changed to an orange, looking good.

I wish that A2A would sell the newer planes with Accusim not included,but as an option like before.
I can never afford paying 50$ and i want to have the T-6 so much.

150% with you Mike. Will never buy it for this price, not trying to be a "real" pilot with Accusim, wonder how many will really master all the planes with Accusim. This is an old question...would love to own this one...not going to pay to buy a product I'll never use in full...
Regards

When I noticed this one incoming on announcement I simply put a little away each week, you can still buy the Virtavia/Alphasim sim model which for its time is good but ever since 'Accusim' was invented , It really add's a new dimension, lotta people are just Ctrl+E so the Virtavia/Alphasim would be your market, myself I grew up around the Harvard , knew one pilot personally in the and tho know many others in the RNZAF who trained and fixed them so it was a definite, ...... biggest thing yud spend hours alone just in your home town airfield circuit .... how many people here buy an aircraft spending quite a few dollars and never really use it , I'm guilty of that but the question of cost is relevant to the whats built into it and dynamics .... I'd just save a little , You will be very happy with this one, Trust me!

Manfred,

One thing I forgot to mention is, if you want to make a short field takeoff, then you will want to use some flaps, up to 20 degrees. Watch the flaps indicator on the lower left of the console to know where they are positioned.

For flaps, you can just use your F7 and F8 keys. So if you want to lower them, just hit the F8 a few times (to guarantee the lever is down), watch the indicator and hit F7 when you want them to stop.

If you have flaps mapped to your joystick.. one button for down, the other for up.. hit the down button twice (once to unlock it, the other to start it moving) while keeping an eye on the flap indicator. When it reaches the desired position, hit the up button once to stop it

Scott and Dave,

Thanks for your input.

I do have buttons on my joystick set up for flaps, and just didn't realize I had to press the button twice to start the movement of the flaps. It's working great

Not quite, as that would have been a BT-14 with a Wright engine and fixed gear, BUT if the French had taken delivery of the Harvard IIs that they had ordered from the Americans before the Armistice then by all means the airframe could have looked just as if it was shown here. Far more plausible than most other Luftwaffe schemed T-6s.

I am truly touched....but unfortunately the RAAF did not fly T-6's. The CAC Wirraway was very similar to the T-6 but a lot differences's too.

 

[UnknownGuest12]

T-6 was probably the most used "attack" plane in colonial Portuguese wars in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau from 1961 to 1974. Think some of the armament was improvised. This one is beautifull restored and can be seen in Portuguese Air Force Museum near Sintra.
