World's only airworthy Guardsman inside the hangar at Planes of Fame Air Museum. Derived from the P-35 fighter, this two-seat advanced trainer was delivered to the USAAF with s/n 41-17529. The aircraft was originally built for Sweden but not delivered after an embargo was declared in 1940. It last served as the base commander's aircraft at Lowery Air Base, Denver. The emblem on the fuselage is of the 17th Pursuit Squadron that later re-equipped with P-40 Warhawks and served in the Philippines at the outbreak of WW2.
