P-36G somewhere?

[Nathan]

Does anyone know anything about a surviving/wreck P-36G in I think one of the countries in South or Central America?

Thanks,
Nathan

Your possibilities, if there was a survivor, would be either Panama, or Brazil.

Peru also operated the type, having purchased several Curtiss Hawk 75A-8s from the Norwegian government in exile, aircraft that had been used in Canada (Little Norway) for pilot training.

Reportedly, 12 aircraft were acquired, and after acquisition were re-designated as P-36G.

I have yet to see one survivor of the type mentioned in Latin America.

Hi guys, I understand the subject is the P-36G, but I keep reading mention
of a Hawk 75-O (fixed landing gear) at a museum in Argentina, similar to
the Thai Hawk. I've seen what the FAA museum displays online, but no
Hawk is to be seen. Any info or pics Tulio?

FAA Museum...click your cursor on the numbers for 360-scan of the aircraft

I have a few pictures of the Hawk 75-Os in Argentinean service, but I have not seen any of the type in a museum there.

Saludos,
