What are the chock times for local sorties?

The correct answer is based on the standard operational guidelines for local sorties in the T-6A aircraft. For local sorties, the chock time is typically set at 1 hour and 45 minutes after takeoff. This duration allows for adequate flight time for training objectives, including maneuvers, as well as time for the aircraft to return to the airfield, land, and taxi back to the chocks.

The specified chock time reflects the need to balance training effectiveness with safety and efficiency in operations. Training missions usually have a determined length to ensure that pilots can practice various skills without exceeding fuel limits or compromising safety.

In comparison, other times listed do not align with the operational procedures specified for T-6A local sorties. The other options may represent typical times in different contexts or may not provide enough time for the planned training activities.
