With his iconic Oracle Challenger biplane now in the Smithsonian, famed performer Sean Tucker puts this Texan thru a much less rigorous routine at the 2021 California International Airshow in Salinas. First flown in 1935, over 15,000 of the venerable Texans were produced and they were still being built in Canada into the 1950’s. 4388 of these AT-6Ds were built including transfers to the United States Navy as the SNJ-5 and to the United Kingdom as the Harvard III. Redesignated T-6D in 1948.
