According to the Vought Aircraft historical website:
« In July, 1950, the three YT-35 Buckaroos were delivered to Randolph AFB to compete with the Beech T-34 Mentor, the Fairchild T-31, Boulton Paul Balliol, and the DeHavilland DHC-1B Chipmunk trainers. »
I have never heard this mentioned anywhere else, nor have I ever seen any picture of that evaluation. If anyone has any material regarding this, however limited, blurry or incomplete, I'd be very curious to see it. For a start, did the aircraft sport temporary U.S.A.F. roundels?
Thanks for any help on this.
