USN still uses the Beech Mentor, powered by turbine in T-34C configuration.

Beech 18s & DC-3s have been getting it done for years. I didn't say anything about 'improving perfection'. I do understand the improved reliability & other benefits of a turbine, tho. IIRC, Taiwan had a turbo prop trainer that's essentially a T-28 with a Lycoming T-55 turbo prop on it. iespam (N329DF) wrote in message ... no, since how do you improve on perfection ?
