Texan Training

Thu Sep 06, 2012 3:38 pm

From Deep in the Heart of Texas the Eagle Flying Museum has its T-6 training program up and running.... we're mostly USAF types, and there are some fighter guys amongst us... the program is a mix of WWII training programs and modern USAF Fighter Training courses.

We don't just teach you how to take off and land the airplane... we teach you how to use it... safely... and its a blast... check us out:

Gunny and the guys at EFM are awesome. I've flown with them and for anyone new to the T-6 or looking to get some advanced experience, they are an excellent option. Great guys with a great program...

How much tailwheel time is recomended before transition to T-6. What are your general minimums (flight experience), insurance requirements?

Thanks!

I have a beautiful T-6 and a proven syllabus. I am a 121 pilot with a major airline, and former Flight Safety ground and simulator instructor. I have time in the TBM and DC-3, and nearly 900 hours of PIC and instructor time in the B-25. I live in St. Louis, and a number of students have bunked at our house during training. I have the most reasonable rates in the country, and have checked out a number of students with no tailwheel time. I can provide you with many references. I believe that 100's of thousands of pilots have been trained in the '6, and I can provide you with training that is as good as anyone else in the country.

Hope to hear from you.
