Fly In A Marine Trainer
!
|
Notes: The museum's T-34 is one of two T-34's that was used by the Marine Corps for a flying club at Quantico. This two seat primary trainer was developed in 1948, and production started in 1953, ending in the late 1970's. The Navy still uses the "C" model today.
The T-34 offers a ride in a veteran Marines trainer with dual controls in an aircraft that flys up to 188mph with a full canopy view, and was the first aircraft acquired by the museum, which received a full restoration. Choose to ride with a Lady Pilot!
