Sponsored by The Elks Magazine, four Studebaker President cars drove from NY to LA in 1929 and this plane, painted in the purple and white Elks colours, apparently made an associated "Coast to Coast Flight'. The P-2 was a development of the P-1 with an Axelson radial and top wing ailerons removed - similar changes as on the Fairchild KR-34 which was based on the same design. The P-2A version had a Wright J-6 Whirlwind. A lighter model of 1932 was the P-1H, powered by a 100-hp Kinner radial and produced by Hammond Aircraft as the Hammond 100 Sportster.
