Is there a 1/48th PT-22 kit?



David OD Long Beach


I recall one being available about 20-25 years ago.

Yellow box, shown in NMF and Yellow wings. Testors?? Somebody will know the manufacture. But yes, there is/was one.

Hawk started it, and it was picked up by Testors. Its still around, if you look hard enough.

FWIW The Ryan PT-22 was a radial engined 2 seat trainer. I know Hawk did a Ryan trainer kit some years ago, but I believe it was the version with the Ranger in-line engine. The molds were picked up bt Testors in later years and are still available today. As I remember, the Hawk kit was issued at one time or another as both a float plane and a land plane. To make the radial engined version you would have to do some modification to the front end of the Hawk kit. I don't know off the top of my head what the radial engine was, Warner maybe? Engines n' Things might have a suitable engine.

IIRC, the radial was a 5 cylinder Kinner. Not sure of the HP or CID.
