Culpeper, Virginia, UNITED STATES: North American T-6 Texans fly over Culpeper, Virginia, October 9, 2013, as members of the North American Trainer Association (NATA) practice formation flying. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the T-6 Texan, the muscular tandem-seat warbird in which countless pilots in dozens of countries honed their flying skills. Theres a lot of history in this airplane. It trained so many air forces in the world, said Len Stoney Stonich of NATA, which represents owners, pilots and fans of the estimated 1,000 civilian-owned Texans around the world. The plane remained in US military service through the Korean War in 1950-53 and into the Vietnam era -- and kept flying for many other air forces for even longer, until South Africa retired its fleet in 1995.
