VT-6's instructors are fleet-experienced pilots who return to the training command to shape the next generation of carrier and maritime patrol aviators.
Perfect For: VT-6 instructor pilots, student naval aviators, T-6B Texan II enthusiasts, NAS Whiting Field personnel, and primary flight training graduates.
