The North American Aviation T-28 Trojan is a piston-engine military trainer aircraft used by the United States Air Force and United States Navy beginning in the 1950s. Besides its use as a trainer, the T-28 was successfully employed as a counter-insurgency aircraft, primarily during the Vietnam War. It has continued in civilian use as an aerobatics and Warbird performer.
After becoming adopted as a primary trainer by the USAF, the United States Navy and Marine Corps adopted it as well. Although the Air Force phased out the aircraft from primary pilot training by the early 1960s, continuing use only for limited training of special operations aircrews and for primary training of select foreign military personnel, the aircraft continued to be used as a primary trainer by the Navy (and by default, the Marine Corps and Coast Guard) well into the early 1980s.

aw man
Oh awesome. Eflite twinsies cause I got the eflite cherokee@TurtlesThatFly
@ACEPILOT109 It flies extremely well, though I don't fly it often cause I really hate it's ground handling characteristics. It keeps flipping over whenever I try taking off! It's a miracle the prop never broke.
@TurtlesThatFly
aaah ok, I've seen that one on Horizon Hobby, they actually had a UMX sized one but they stopped selling it! I was gonna buy it but at the last minutes got the sport cub, I still remember that sad day I realized I'd never get it!
.
Anyways, how does it fly?
@ACEPILOT109 its an eflite 1.1 meter t-28 which is basically the parkzone one.
