Boeing P-26 Peashooter’ - part 2

 Here is the finished P-26, resplendent in Chinese markings. I bought some suitable decals recently and the rather wobbly rudder stripes were hand painted.

That looks excellent. I shall enjoy seeing it in action. Not a plane I'm very familiar with, it rather resembles a Rata!

Or a Mitsubishi Claude. There's some cheap Claude's on Ebay at the moment:

Would provide interesting opposition for your Chinese Peashooter!

Tim,

Very nice. (Martin, in early reports from Spain during the SCW, the Rata was misreported as being one of these.)

All the best,

Bob

You can quite see why the confusion arose.
