Stearman PT-17 with American Cadets is a plastic model aircraft kit in 1/32 scale produced by ICM. The set represents the Boeing-Stearman PT-17 primary training aircraft together with cadet figures associated with pilot training in the United States during World War II. The model depicts one of the most recognizable American training biplanes and is supplied unpainted and unassembled.

The Boeing-Stearman PT-17 was widely used by the United States Army Air Forces as a primary trainer for new pilots. During World War II, thousands of cadets received their first flight training in this open-cockpit biplane before progressing to more advanced aircraft. The aircraft became an important step in the training pipeline that prepared pilots for operational service.

Stearman PT-17 – World War II American Training Biplane

The PT-17 featured a sturdy biplane design, fixed landing gear, and open tandem cockpits for instructor and trainee. Its stable handling characteristics made it suitable for basic flight instruction. Aircraft of this type operated from numerous training airfields across the United States throughout the war.

For modelers: the large 1/32 scale allows detailed work on cockpit interiors, pilot figures, and wing struts. Painting the aircraft and cadet figures separately before final assembly can help create a realistic training scene.
