EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the North American AT-6D Texan aircraft, registration number D-FDOK (msn 121-42441, formerly 44-81719), during its tenure with the 22nd Fighter-Bomber Squadron of the 36th Fighter-Bomber Group, stationed at Furstenfeldbruck in Germany, under the United States Air Force in Europe (USAFE) command. The image is believed to have been taken around 1960. Originally registered as D-IDOK with Deutscher Luftfahrt-Beratungsdienst GmbH on January 25, 1957, this North American AT-6D Texan underwent a reregistration on August 2, 1957, adopting the new registration number D-FDOK. The Texan, a single-engine, propeller-driven advanced trainer, was a popular choice for military pilot training during the Cold War era. The 22nd Fighter-Bomber Squadron was part of the 36th Fighter-Bomber Group, which was responsible for providing tactical air support to ground forces. The squadron's mission was to ensure the readiness and proficiency of its pilots, and the Texan was an integral part of their training program. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the North American AT-6D Texan in its military role during the Cold War era. The image is a testament to the aircraft's enduring legacy and the vital role it played in preparing pilots for combat missions.
