What is the minimum flight crew required to operate the T-6A?

The T-6A Texan II is designed to be operated by a minimum of one pilot. This single-pilot capability makes it efficient for training environments, where a solo instructor may need to evaluate a student or conduct specific flight scenarios without the need for a co-pilot.

While the aircraft can accommodate two crew members, typically seen in training where an instructor and student might both be present, the operational design allows for effective solo flight. This flexibility enables streamlined operations, particularly in training missions where the focus may be on individual proficiency.

In contrast, the other choices reflect crew configurations that are not necessary for operating the T-6A, which is optimized for single-pilot operation while still retaining the versatility to accommodate an additional crew member when required.
