North American Harvard In Flight Editorial Photo

From the same stable as the P-51D Mustang, the North American Harvard and the New Zealand Warbirds association seem to go hand and hand . Perhaps this is due to the type`s high-profile aerobatic display team, the `Roaring Forties`, or the number of Harvard`s registered with the association but whatever the reason, the comment so often heard when they fly over is `look, it`s the Warbirds`. To cover, in any detail, every individual variant of the aircraft produced would and indeed has, in many cases fill an entire book. It was one of the most widely produced and used training aircraft ever.
