Boeing P26 Spanish Civil War version
Hi This is Marek's version of one of my favorite planes. Maybe some squad identification number is missing, but if I find it I will put it on the model Regards

Nice clean build. Well done! The livery of Marek's model matches that of Spanish Republican Boeing 281 (civilian version of P-26). Here's a little blurb on this particular airplane from Wings Palette:
Unit: unknown Serial: unknown The second Model 281 demonstrator (civilian registration X12275) was shipped to Spain in search of more customers. Test pilot Les Tower demonstrated the aircraft for the Spanish government at Barajas airfield near Madrid in April of 1935. However, the Spanish government opted not to order the aircraft, but it did buy the unarmed Model 281 demonstrator and equipped it with a pair of 0.303-inch Vickers machine guns in underwing pods. The aircraft saw service on the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War. It was shot down on October 21, 1938.
