    Now this is a real treat so many bombardiers trained on this type of aircraft hence the glass nose instead of the solid nose excellent video greetings from steve in England to you and all who watch 👍

    Very nice video of the Beech AT-11 Kansan. My father was a Second Lieutenant in the USAAF during WWII. He flew the Beech AT-11 Kansan as a bomber crew instructor pilot from MacDill Field in Tampa, Florida in 1944 and he really enjoyed flying the AT-11. They used the AT-11 Kansans as bomber crew trainers where the crew learned how to communicate to work together as a team in order to survive being in combat before moving on to crew the actual bombers they were assigned to. Instead of dropping bombs, the AT-11's at MacDill Field actually were configured to drop sand bags as a simulated bomb load over the Gulf of Mexico. The sand bags were set in gondolas that were triggered using firing solenoids in the bomb racks that were controlled by the intervalometer in the bombardier's station. The intervalometer would send firing impulses electrically to the firing solenoids in the bomb racks to trigger the gondolas to release their payload of sand bags. The intervalometer insured that the sand bags were released in a manner so as not to upset the aircraft's weight and balance, whether the bags were released as a salvo or as a scattered pattern by the bombardier. My father was also an instructor pilot in Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses, Consolidated B-24 Liberators and Martin B-26 Marauders when he was stationed at MacDill Field.

      @@hurzlugurzludugudrobus-dou8561 Richtige Flugtage oder Airshows glaube ich nicht das die dieses Jahr noch möglich sind. Vielleicht können Vereine Fly-Ins durchführen, bei denen dann ein kleines Programm noch stattfindet.

    It's not always Fighters, this type of AC played key roles and always good to see. Great interior look around too.

    Why did he wait so long to retract the gear?
    That can kill you!
