Default I.D help, please - PA030038.JPG (1/1)

It is "Buster BT" That is a BT-13 (Navy called it an SVN) Many
differences from the AT-6

1. Fixed gear.
2. R-985 / 450 HP instead of 600HP in T-6..
3. Different mission as seen by its model name. BT, Basic Trainer instead
of Advaned Trainer.
4. Don't recall the weights, but the BT was no doubt quite a bit lighter.
It was also used as an instrument trainer.
