Curtiss P-6 Hawk
Here we have a superb Curtiss P-6 Hawk biplane fighter from the Golden Era of flight. Mr. Westfall has created an aircraft of rare detail and beauty, and it is a shame that there are so few 1920's and 1930's era aircraft available for CFS2. The P-6 comes from my personal favourite era of flight, between the World Wars, and this particular P-6 paint scheme is even better. It depicts a P-6 from the 14th Pursuit Group from Selfridge Army Air Corps Field, of around 1930, and the significance of this is that my father grew up 3 miles from Selfridge Field and had seen similar aircraft taking off and landing all the time, if not P-6's themselves.
