Smile Vultee BT-13 FAM Finished

Well friends in today's meeting (still virtual) of the CCCP, my modeling club finished the Vultee BT-13 from FAM.



Along with the T-6 and the Catalina, it is one of the most used aircraft in Latin America. As a basic and advanced trainer I had some limitations. In the FAB, which he used until well after the war, the two BT-13/15 versions had a very large notice on the control panel for students and instructors "In case of a bolt, leave the aircraft". In the FAB, sharp angle dives as well as negative acrobatic maneuvers were prohibited because the Vultee plane was temperamental according to the old pilots. The FAM BT-13 model is numbered #2841 in Bruno's catalog and is a delightful model to build, but it has some reported problems one post ago.
