Silver Wings have a real treat in store for Golden Age modellers this autumn with the announcement of their next 1:32 kit - the Curtiss P-6E Hawk.
There are no details available yet beyond artwork for the three very attractive planned colour schemes:

Curtiss P-6E Hawk 32-274, 17th Pursuit Squadron, 1st Pursuit Group, Selfridge Field, Michigan, 1932
Curtiss P-6E Hawk 32-277, 94th Pursuit Squadron, Selfridge Field, Michigan, 1930
Curtiss P-6E Hawk '22', 33rd Pursuit Squadron, 8th Pursuit Group, Virginia Beach Summer Camp, July 1934

Silver Wings are planning to switch from resin production to injection moulding in the near future. Will this be their first release in styrene? - only time will tell...

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.

Oh I am so getting in on this. I love the era, but have never built anything from it. Gorgeous subject matter.
