Can the flap position be visually verified from the cockpit?

The flap position in the T-6A cannot be visually verified from the cockpit due to the design of the aircraft. Flap position indicators are primarily located on the cockpit instrument panel, allowing pilots to read the flap position using visual displays rather than by direct observation of the flaps themselves. This design choice simplifies cockpit management and reduces the need for pilots to redirect their attention outside the cockpit, particularly during critical phases of flight such as takeoff and landing.

Even though there are monitoring systems in place to confirm flap deployment states, the inability to visually confirm the actual position of the flaps externally ensures that the pilot relies on the cockpit's indicators, promoting safety and operational efficiency. Therefore, the most accurate conclusion regarding the visibility of flap position from the cockpit is that it cannot be verified visually.
