Hobby Master 1:48 Boeing Peashooter P-26A HA7507. 34th Pursuit Sqn., 17th Pursuit Group, March Field, CA.

Highly detailed diecast pre-finished collector model airplane. Each model comes with display stand, rolling gears, and is assembled and ready to display. 

Boeing’s first and last all-metal monoplane fighter produced for the US Army Air Corps was the P-26. Known as the “Peashooter” there were 111 P-26As produced. The wings were braced with wire instead of wooden struts and this reduced drag and along with a 500 hp engine the aircraft was much faster than the older bi-planes. The mono-wing also meant a higher landing speed so flaps had to be added to slow the aircraft down. It had fixed landing gear and an open cockpit with just a windscreen to protect the pilot.

Originally formed as the 17th Observation Group on October 17, 1927 they were re designated the 17th Pursuit Group on July 15, 1931 at March Field California. The 17th PG was comprised of the 34th, 73rd and 95th PS and operated the Boeing P-12 and P-26 fighter aircraft until 1935 when they were re-designated the 17th Attack Group and re-equipped with the Northrup A-17 attack bomber. The 17th AG operated from March Field until 1945 when they relocated to McChord Field, Washington on June 24, 1940. In 1938 the P-26s were transferred to the 16th Pursuit Group stationed in the Panama Canal Zone.
