The T-34 is a lovely flying airplane. With the original 225
horsepower it seems a bit under powered for sprightly aerobatics, but I
once flew a Navy owned airplane that had been modified to a different
version of
the same engine with 260 horsepower. Many civil T-34's have 285 or
300 horsepower engines that will all fit the cowl with no
modification. The kit has several propellers so civil schemes can be
done.
