The PT-17 was the military designation of the Boeing-Stearman Model 75. This was used as a the primary trailer for the USAAF, USN and RCAF. It was a conventional biplane of rugged construction with large, fixed tailwheel undercarriage, and accommodation for the student and instructor in open tandem cockpits. This new sheet from ILIAD allows for 5 different aircraft can be built from the sheet;

The decals look excellent, well printed, colour dense and with minimal carrier film.

Conclusion
These decals will help the modeller make a good looking PT-17. Highly Recommended.
