Beechcraft T-34 Mentor (Pilot's Flight Operation Instructions)
Designed in 1948 by Walter Beech, the T-34 Mentor was created as an affordable replacement for the T-6/NJ Texan. The aircraft shared many features with the Beechcraft Bonanza but had a two-seat cockpit with a bubble canopy and a conventional tail.
The original T-34 models used a piston engine. Fifteen years after production ended, the design was upgraded to the turbo-prop T-34C Turbo-Mentor, which remained in production until 1990.
The T-34 is considered one of the most reliable trainers of its type, with many still in service six decades after its introduction. Over 2.300 Mentors were built worldwide in various versions, including the T-34A for the Air Force and the T-34B for the U.S. Navy.
This book reproduces the complete original T-34A Mentor flight manual, first published in 1958, providing a detailed look at the operation and handling of this classic trainer aircraft.
