In the US, it's called the Texan or the Mosquito. In Southern California, there's a squad of T6's that does flyovers at patriotic ceremonies.
Thanks, I forgot to mention it’s USAAF nickname. “Mosquito” must be a post-WW2 moniker, I’ve never seen or heard of the T-6/AT-6 being called that. AT stood for Advanced Trainer when it was the transition point into USAAF fighter aircraft. Or when it was hauling around aerial gunners in the back seat giving them aerial training, like my Dad got out of Harlingen Army Air Field.
Looks a bit closer to a T-28 than a T-6. Probably a good aircraft for the chosen mission.
