Description: MITSUBISHI 'PETE' SEAPLANES
This is a unique opportunity to acquire a WW-II aerial combatant so rare that for many years, and even to this day, it is thought of as an extinct species. The package we are offering here has been very carefully retrieved and housed in secure, dry, surroundings for the last decade or two. In addition, its dedicated owner has added instruments, compass, gun-sight and correct radio equipment etc to properly populate the instrument panels of one of them. I don't have to labor the point here, as to how seldom we see rare Japanese WW-II aircraft become available.
