This Harvard is in original condition as it was flying on active duty. The Harvard's career as trainer in South Africa spanned 55 years from 1940 to 1995. Every allied forces fighter pilot who flew in WW ll trained in one version or another of the T-6. She has earned a well deserved retirement from active military service | |
