I like it. But I think the version you have is a trainer.
No one knows what the future may bring.

I'd have a better chance in running into a Dodo Bird in the middle of rush hour, walking down the I-5 with two hookers in tow before I see a useful post from glock89- Ack-Ack

Yes to the P-36. And unlike hollywood would like you to believe five P-36s were the only American aircraft to get off the ground during the attack on Pearl Harbor. They were credited with two kills of A6Ms with one P-36 being lost in the process.

Wing loading: 25 lb/ft² (122 kg/m²)

Wing loading similar to a SpitV?

Power/mass: 0.18 hp/lb

This is correct? That is same power loading as the Pony I believe. Why is the climb rate only 2,500 fpm? Lack of effective turbo/supercharging? That being the case, would it average better on the deck?
