Default RE: AT-6 Pilot

Actually it is solo from the front only. All of the electrical switches and circuit breakers, fuel selector, start switch and radio gear is in the front. Rear pit had almost all of the instrumentation as the front, throttle,prop,mixture,flaps and you could put the gear down in the back. The back is fun to shoot touch and goes as there is no forward visibility in the three point attitude. If you can fly a T-6 from the back seat most fighters are a piece of cake.
Thanks for the correction; that's the difference between reading about a plane and knowing it!

I owned a T-6 for 9 years so I know it pretty well.
I'm absolutely green with envy!
