Darn, I was hoping you would say P-6E. But as long as we are fantasizing here, I would love to display "two" Curtiss Hawks next to my C1 Tomahawk:

P-6E and P-36. The P-6E in the Snowy Owl livery, and the P-36 in the yellow, white, and OD camo scheme.

No Problem Elmer, If anyone made any of your selection I would be ready with the money, you have good taste in planes my friend.

Thanks Epap,

Appreciate the answer, it has been awhile since I had seen the story on the Military Channel, I could only remember that the A/C could take a lot of punisment from ground fire etc., and still get the pilot home safely! Very good A/C for it's time, similar to our todays A-10. Thanks again!

In 1/48, right now I'll just go for the new HM Griffon Spit. Don't have anything in 1/48 but that'll force me to change tack.
