Great to see such an amazing plane preserved and displayed, definitely a fighter between the eras of biplanes and monoplanes right in the middle of that transition. Metal Mono plane, fixed under cart, open cockpit and wire bracing a real mix of the modern to come and the old.
How any of these things ever killed Zeros in air combat is beyond me except to say it just about had to be the relative skill factors of the pilots involved that allowed it to happen.
