The Douglas A 26 Invader began U.S. service in 1942, and was retired from the military in 1972;
it has been used as an attack bomber, a fire fighting aircraft and many other purposes. (15mm Voigtländer)

This is a real nice Boeing Stearman. Nearly ten thousand of these were built as trainers
for the Army Air Force and Navy and for the Royal Canadian Air Force for World War Two.
This one is painted in Army Air Force Colors. Navy would be all yellow. (15mm Voigtländer)
