Sitting on the platform, being beautiful. Thirty years ago a massive fleet of very active Turbo Mentors was in use with the US Navy for basic aircraft flying. This aircraft was withdrawn from use by September 2011 and replaced by the T-6 Texan II. This photo is copyright © Stephan de Bruijn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
