1/32 Stearman PT-17 with American Cadets
ICM 1/32 Stearman PT-17 with American Cadets is a plastic kit of the US primary trainer biplane. The aircraft has 92 parts, and three female cadet figures add another 25. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Stearman PT-17 Kaydet was a primary training biplane on which thousands of American pilots took their first steps in flying during the Second World War. It had a rugged structure, a radial engine and open tandem cockpits for student and instructor.
The ICM set in 1/32 scale combines the aircraft kit (92 parts) with three figures of American female cadets of 1943–1945 (25 parts). The model is 237 mm long with a 308 mm wingspan. The decals offer two options: an aircraft of the 63d AAF Flying Training Detachment at Douglas, Georgia (1942), and a WASP programme machine from Avenger Field, Texas (1943), where women pilots were trained.
The figures give the model a human scale and suit a small diorama of a flying school apron. The bright trainer colours stand out in 1/32 even without elaborate weathering. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
