Description
The North American T-6 Texan also known as the Harvard to Commonwealth Nations, saw widespread use by the Allies during World War II as the principle trainer to teach pilots the finer points of advanced aviation and combat operations. Almost any pilot that flew fighters or fighter bombers during the war probably "cut their teeth" in this aircraft, earning it the nickname "Pilot Maker". It was not an intuitive or easy aircraft to fly and it was said of the Texan/Harvard 'if you could fly it, you could fly anything'. All told, more then 15,000 (of all variants) were produced before and during the war years, and they saw active service in multiple conflicts and militaries after the war, and atleast one remained in active service until 2016! Today, they can be seen at almost any airshow around the world thrilling all those that go to see them.

This particular Harvard IIb is unique in that it was built by Noorduyn of Canada and purchased by the United Kingdom (outside of lend-lease) and saw continuous use with the Royal Air Force (RAF) from 1944 until 2016! Racking up an incredible 15,000 hours flight time, registered as G-CORS she still flies today as part of Rolls Royce's "Heritage Flight". This aircraft and it's associated systems closely resemble those on the real aircraft in both use and function. To get the best out of the aircraft I encourage you to read the information listed below and watch the tutorial video.

  • Max Speed: 160 KIAS
  • Range: 100 Km
  • Fuel Capacity : 750L
  • Crew: 2

Operation:

jshmccanna, I've been re-reading the manuals (particularly the maintenance one, as it doves into more detail about the priming system) and I'm tinkering with a better way to do it, but I think in it's current configuration it's pretty close to the real thing. Thanks for the continued interest!

i thought you were gonna change the priming system to work like how it used to since rn you dont even have to prime it
