8th Airforce T6's?

I wonder whether anyone can help me? I am looking for pictures of the 8th Airforce T6 squadron hacks that were based in the UK during the war.

Many Thanks

Chris

Usually the T-6's wore the Group's colors like the figthers did. not sure about a bomb squadron T-6 though.

Chris in one of Jeff Ethells 'War Eagle's books there is a nice colour pic of the T-6 hack at Raydon - have it at home somewhere - all over silver with the 45 deg checks on the tail IIRC....

PM me if you want a copy...

Hi,

A few years ago I made a some drawings of this T-6 mentioned by Ben Brown (AKA TexanTomcat); as a pattern for a T-6 project here in the Netherlands. So in case you are interested "Yak11fan", let me know.

Regards,

Benno

P.S.
Might be an excuse to post some pics of the aircraft on the trailer...

Hi Benno,

I would love to see the drawings if that were possible, it would be great to see a T6 in those markings
