File Description:
This is a repaint for the payware A2A Simulations AT-6 Texan. This repaint depicts the restored Noorduyn-built Harvard Mk.IIb c/n 14A-1106, owned/operated by John Rayner, based in Australia, and registered as VH-TXN. This aircraft originally served with the RCAF during WWII as FS966, training Commonwealth pilots in the Empire Air Training Scheme in Canada, and from 1946 until 1969 served in the Swedish AF as Sk 16A #16077. Traded from the Swedish AF Museum in 1980 to an Australian collector, the aircraft was later purchased by John Rayner in 1994 and fully restored. The aircraft is painted in the markings of one of the three Harvards supplied to RAF 239 Wing (comprising of RAAF (Australian) 3 & 450 Squadrons and RAF (British) 112 & 250 Squadrons), based in North Africa in 1942, for "Wing Training" - general duties of which included providing check-out flights for new pilots and providing ferrying capability for pilots to pick up replacement aircraft.
