About the plane:
Pemberton-Billing P.B. 25 was a development of P.B. 23 - not very successful reconnaissance aircraft from 1915. 20 pieces were made - 9001 had a two-blade propeller. 9002-9020 already had four blades. 9003-9020 were armed. I won't lie he wasn't good (it seems that the airmen used unrefined terms about him), but you have to admit: he's so ugly that he's pretty 😃
About the item:
9002 was the only one of the "four-blade nineteen" not equipped with weapons and that's what decided to make this copy 🙂 I couldn't find more about the history of his life and service 🙁
About the model:
The basis was the AviS model in 1:72 scale. The rigging from the plans is slightly incomplete - I tried to recreate it based on a few photos I found on the web.
