    Two U.S. military training aircraft are flying in formation over a flat, grid-patterned agricultural landscape with mountains visible in the background. Both aircraft are silver with olive/dark green engine cowlings and bear U.S. Army Air Forces markings including white stars in circles. The aircraft are identified by fuselage codes X-151 and X-152, consistent with North American AT-6 Texan trainers from the World War II era.

    The T-6 Texan, which is known by a variety of designations including the pictured AT-6C, was used to train pilots of the U.S. armed forces and Royal Air Force for more than 30 years. The Texan was originally created at Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant Dallas, which closed last year after 66 years of on-site contract management operations.
