What I don't quite understand about the choice of aircraft is that they've gone for 120TP which is, if I'm not mistaken, a 200kt+, 25000' capable retractable undecarriage pocket rocket (see flight's article on it). They then supplement that with T-6C, which, to my knowledge, adds a little in terms of performance, and in-line rather than side by side seating. Obviously one wishes to download training hours as far as one can, but surely it isn't too much of a leap to ditch t-6 and use the 120 for bfjt also?
