Thanks for sharing this Daveroo . A PT-23 ? I'm not so sure that I've even ran across that one leafing through aviation books . I'm going to have to Google or Wiki this one just to satisfy my curiosity .

(It kind of looks like a T-6 with a shorter nose , doesn't it ?)

Radial engine version of the Fairchild PT series. At first I thought it was an engine replacement. I like the standard version better, the round engine kinda ruins the aesthetics of the plane.

It does rather give an impressions like an old economy class go to work car doesnt it??
I think I would have prefered a V or Inline engine myself on it..

Fairchild built....less than 300 produced. Pretty rare ship.
