I'm working on the Texan Registry at the moment and while I knew they were widely used, it didn't quite click how widely. So I looked it up and holy moly there were a lot of users.
So I decided as part of the Registry update I will be updating the Texan profile on the site. Part of that is a list of users (see below) and I am trying to collect pictures of EVERY scheme. Service pictures preferred. It is a daunting task and I request the WIX collectives assistance. If you have a picture of an aircraft in service in a particular scheme the feel free to post it here or send it to the submission address for the registry (see below).

I will add these images to the list as it fills in. Also, if there are any users missing let me know. Thanks.

You can send pictures to

Perhaps the title needs to be a bit more specific to attract T-6 aficionados.

I think I should have one or two photos of Dutch T-6 airframes in museum collections around. I will have a look in my photo collection one of these days.

Scott, here is one. hopefully the start of something nice ;-)
It is photo of an armed T-6, serial 1737, in the FA Portuguesa museum at Sintra

@Archer: beware that the Dutch T-6s were actually Noorduyn built AT-16s .....

If you don't have one, pick up a copy of the book North American's T-6: A Definitive History of the World's Most Famous Trainer by Dan Hagedorn. Chapter Ten has pictures of T-6s with just about every operator. Many of them may course be copyrighted, so you'll have to talk to the author about rights, but he posts here as "RB-18B" so hopefully he shouldn't be that hard to contact.

Wikimedia Commons also has a category for North American Texan by operator that might be useful.
