N4735G - North American NH64 Yale - Pima Air & Space Museum May 2019.
The Yale is a member of the same family of trainer aircraft as the T-6 Texan and it bears a very close resemblance to the Texan. The most obvious difference is the fixed landing gear on the Yale compared to the retractable gear on the Texan. The 119 Yale aircraft used by the Royal Canadian Air Force were built for export to France but were diverted to Canada after France fell to Germany in 1940. The Yale closely resembles the U.S. Army Air Forces’ BT-14 however they are not identical. The Yale served in Canada until late 1946 when they were all retired.
