North American Harvard Trainer (AT-6 Texan)
The Harvard Trainer, also called the AT-6 Texan in the USA, was a World War II twin-seat trainer with a completely enclosed glass canopy, a tall body, and low-set rectangular wings. During the war the prairie skies were filled with them, thereby spawning the local epithet “The Yellow Horde”. The total production of the trainer family was an awesome 21,342. Many are still in service in a variety of uses.
This kit is a 1:14.4 scale flying model. The kit was designed in December, 1940. Pre-1942 design, eligible for Society of Antique Modelers (SAM) contests.
