To Kenm 94591... I built this Dumas kit in 2011 with only modification to the landing gear. Your engine detail will add much to this model. |

Thanks for the comments on my P-26 Peashooter build. Enjoyed your build of the 1936 Comet version. More fragile than the current Dumas kit. Nice papered color scheme. |

Dale,
You,ve done a beautiful job. You might be interested in looking at PeaShooter.net. It describes two real, all metal P-26 airplanes being built using factory drawings, lots of good photos.

All Dumas kits are laser cut. |

Good looking build. Great job. Was this a laser cut kit? |

Dumas P-26 Peashooter Kit #223, Walnut scale 17 ½” wingspan |

One modification made to this kit was to construct full wheel pants by laminating 1/8” balsa, instead of the kit’s profile representation. |

Some modifications were made to the basic construction such as added stringers to the fuselage, etc. |

I was surprised when first opening the kit to find no vacuum formed parts. The cowl assembly was made up of 18 laser cut balsa parts which easily went together with good results. |

The front of the fuselage was planked according to the kit plans. |
