My 1/100 Repaints and OOB Builds

[Larry R.]

Looking forward to your P-12E repaint, Rata. According to Squadron/Signal Pub on this aircraft, the headrest fairing was indeed modified to make a space for a life raft, this mod being the "so-called 'Panama Kit Conversion'." Army pilots from France Field in the Panama Canal Zone patrolled over both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and had need of a raft in the event of an emergency over water.

Beautiful P-12's my friend! Very nice conversion and repaint!

I agree, and I like the inclusion of the pilots. In my humble opinion they nicely enhance your models. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the kind comments everybody.

And Larry R, appreciate that technical info.

Thanks for the heads up. You'll be the target of my first 'purge'.

P-12 is a beautiful little biplane. Very nicely built. Do you know if any civilian liverys exist?
