When you’re not flying or in the simulator during Phase II, you’ll be in your flight room. Be ready though because Phase II starts with a little shock and awe. (Nobody calls it the “Texan,” the “Texan II,” or the “JPATS.”” Just call it the T-6). You’ll be looking forward to Phase II and flying the Beechcraft T-6A Texan II.

Every person I know is thankful!” – Nicholas Brumgard, T-6 Texan II, US16LA ejection seat, 24th September 2010. Lessett, T-6 Texan II, US16LA ejection seat, 2nd April 2010. “ I would like to extend my gratitude and appreciation of your equipment, as I personally feel that it saved my life.” – 2nd Lt. Here’s what some of our ejectees had to say about our US16LA ejection seat: A total of 11 aircrew owe their lives to the US16LA JPATS Ejection Seat. Since the first JPATS delivery in 1997, over 1,600 seats have been delivered worldwide. These include Canada, Greece, Iraq, Israel, Mexico, Morocco and USA. The T-6 Texan II is currently operated by 7 different countries. It is designed to accommodate a very wide size and weight range. With the Mk16 lightweight low-speed seat, ejection performance is optimised throughout the escape envelope, from zero height at zero velocity in a near level attitude through to 370 knots. It optimises the pilot field of view, improves comfort and pilot efficiency, and provides increased reliability and maintainability. Designated the US16LA, this lightweight ejection seat is designed for training aircraft, such as the T-6 Texan II. The JPATS (Joint Primary Aircraft Training System) is designed to train students in basic flying skills and is common to the U.S.
