North American T-6 Texan var eit avansert fly. Det flaug første gang i 1935 og er såleis ein flytype som er meir enn 80 år gammalt. Denne flytypen var det viktigaste treningsflyet for dei allierte pilotane under andre verdskrig. Etter trening på dette flyet fekk pilotane sluttopplæring på den flytypen dei skulle gjera teneste på.
Når flyet var i kanadisk eller britisk teneste, fekk flyet namnet North American T- 6 Harvard. Flyet som deltok på Stord laurdag 16. juni, var nettopp ein Harvard.
Bygningane eller husa ein kan sjå på eit av bileta, er frå Rubbestadneset i nabokommunen, Bømlo.

This plane was the essential training plane for the Allied Pilots during World War II. After training on this plane, the pilots received final training on the type of aircraft they were going to service.
When the plane was in service in Canadian or British, the aircraft got the name North American T-6 Harvard. The plane that participated in Stord, Saturday 16 June was just one Harvard.
