The T-34 Mentor is an unpressurized two-seat, tandem cockpit low-wing turboprop trainer whose mission is to train Navy and Marine Corps pilots.
The T-34B is used to provide primary flight training for student pilots. As a secondary mission, approximately 10 percent of the aircraft provide pilot proficiency and other aircraft support services to Commander, Naval Air Force, U.S. Atlantic Fleet; Commander, Naval Air Force, U.S. Pacific Fleet; and Naval Air Systems Command's "satellite sites" operated throughout the continental United States.
The T-34B was procured as a commercial-derivative aircraft certified under an FAA Type Certificate. The T-34B was derived from the civilian Beechcraft Bonanza. Throughout its life, the aircraft has been operated and commercially supported by the Navy using FAA processes, procedures and certifications.

I was in that squadron. TRARON 1 Eaglets, Saufley Field, Pensacola Fla. 1966. Over 100 aircraft on the flight line right next to VT-5 who were flying the T-28 Trojans.

WOW!! Enjoyed the ride with you. Brought back fond memories of my ONLY real flying experience in T34B at Saufley Field (Pensacola) while in NAVY Flight Surgeon Training in 1973. Students always flew from forward position, Instructor in rear. I enjoyed learning to Start, Run up, Taxi, takeoff, climb, level flight, 90kt descent, enter pattern & finally landing & taxi to line. I did NOT enjoy Stalls, Spins, loops, inversion or any other aerobatics. I was grateful to be just a doctor to the fleet pilots (I was assigned to an airborne mine clearing squadron [HM12] flying Sikorsky RH53D) but gained tremendous respect for Naval Aviators and pilots in general.

I learned to fly with the Albrook Aero Club at Albrook AFB in Panama in 1969. We had three Cessna 150’s, a Cessna 175, a couple Piper Cherokee140’s and an Air Force T-34 that could be rented. I got a chance to fly in the T-34 a few times. It was of course, fully acrobatic, and I spent some time upside down in the T-34.

An old friend of mine was an Instructor in the Marine Corpse. He loved the Mentor.

@SirDrifto 2 года назад

Did he enjoy it.

The Marine Corpse? LMAO, sounds about right

There was a flying in Virginia called the Quantico Marine Flying Club that had a T-34 civilian one back years ago

So the Navy is still using Mentors for training present day,? What happened to the touch and go? Did they decide to land instead because of the turbulence. I'm staying at and RV park less than a mile from Kingsville NAS, really something to watch and listen to them on the scanner.

Thank you. I have been doing this for 50 years. You can come out and fly my plane any time.

Why did you fly from the backseat??

@whereisthehook 2 года назад

Flaps in the flare??? 13:10

@DanSHJ45 Год назад

Yeah that's a solid WTF for me. I used to fly with a guy who thought that was the coolest thing on earth: to add flaps in the flare. Never could figure out why he thought it was a good idea. Alaska 135 operators are weird, I guess.

@whereisthehook 2 года назад

Why was the canopy opening at 7:30 ?

@whereisthehook 2 года назад

7:20

@SirDrifto 2 года назад

The latch was not fully locked. I actually didn't need to voice my concerns as I did apparently you can fly with these opened to a degree. But I was unaware.

@whereisthehook 2 года назад

@@SirDrifto Reminds me of the time I took off with the door open in the PA-28. The noise cancelled the radio out.

The T-34 canopy can be open at all airspeeds

@JustaPilot1 2 года назад

@@alianjohnson6035 the A model, Air Force, has a fillet between the rudder and tail cone. The B model, Navy, does not. You can see that fillet in the thumbnail and walk around in the hanger and when they pull it out of the hanger.

@@alianjohnson6035 Also the B model has adjustable rudder peddles and you can see in the cockpit view this plane does not. It’s an A model.

You have no clue what you are talking about. This is MY airplane. It is a 1956 T-34B. I have had it for close to a decade. When the T-34B/D-45 was Civilianized by the Navy, the Type Certificate required the installation of the triangular fillet above the tail cone. Also, the adjustable rudder pedals are exclusive to the T-34B and T-34C, both Navy planes… I have about 1,000 ours flying both the B and the C as a Navy Pilot and civilian. Also, I have 200+ hours in the Air Force T-34A as a civilian. It’s a good idea not to try to be an authority on something that you know nothing about. By the way, the guy in the back seat was a student who came out to fly my plane. He was not really paying attention, as evidenced by his mid-setting the aft Aspen unit and his inattention to trying to fly the plane. He was spending too much time mis-representing the flight with his cameras and editing.

How much flight time would about $1000 buy me….former Naval Aviation….ground but work as commercial airline dispatcher now……I will even fly to nearest major airport and rental over to airport!!!

@Haightcommies Месяц назад

I am the owner of the plane and I'm the instructor. Had no idea that this guy made the video of my plane from the back seat. If you would like to fly my T-34B, I can arrange it.
