Some observations that helped to determine the precise model:

 - The fuselage is covered with fabric. Later models used metal
 - The trailing edge of the rudder is rounded, later models had a straight rudder 
 - The bottom corner of the rudder is squared, some other models are rounded (e.g BT-9) 

 - The fuselage shows the crest of the [USAAF's Technical Training Command][5]:
