When I was reading the list of PAF I posted on the other section, I came accross the Boeing P12E. Then I remembered that there was 1 peice in our hobby shop here.

So I went down and bought it. Turns out to be the last peice.

It's a 1/32 scale kit. Pretty big.




I wonder if anyone has reference pics for this aircraft?

I believe Manokski mentioned  this aircraft before. The last one used to be at PAF Museum but it was pulled out and rebuilt. It made a grand pass at one PAF Anniversary day in the 1980's as the emcee was recalling the colorful history of PAF followed by closely by a F-8H. What a sight to behold. The old biplane Boeing (which I mistook for a Jenny) lumbering, overtaken and left behind by the sleek F-8H.

Manokski should be able to provide information on the aircraft. I should think it seats somewhere at VAB.

Thanks for the link. But I was thinking more in the lines of Phil. Air Corps pics of the P12 to copy for this kit.

Cheif,

Should the emblem be that big?

sure about the paac p-12? i know the americans had spads, f5 (no, the paf f-5s are not that old, talking about a boeing biplane), jennys, p-12s, p-26s, p-35s along with some bolos. possible that the us had some filipinos train on them but i dont think there were official filipino pursuit planes until the p-26.

Thinking about it, yeah you're right. Manokski mentioned it was a Stearman P-17, not a P-12.

Wish PAF Unixgeek can give us a walkaround of that Boeing P-17 if it has not been sold yet.

The PAF did rebuild a Stearman not a P-12 and flew it as part of one of the anniversary celebrations.

I believe I never saw one at VAB (not even at the museum).  There is a Stearman on static display at FAB, Lipa though.  I believe it is near the AETC area.

There used to be one in VAB in the old museum area before they moved it and restored it.

I have a picture of the Stearman before it was restored. I will post it as soon as I find where my wife kept (threw) it.  Razz
