This Brewster Buffalo is a faithful copy of the original made by Cradle of Aviation Museum volunteers using original factory blueprints. Their workmanship is so good that the Finnish Government has commissioned the museum to make another copy for a Finnish aviation museum. The Finns relied heavily on the Brewster Buffalo in their fight against the Soviets early in WWII and had better luck with it than did the American or British air forces. Part of this might be due to the colder operating temperatures cutting down on the engine overheating problems the Buffalo was known for. In my search for other information on the Brewster Buffalo I found a page by Patrick Masell that states the Brewster Buffalo had the highest Loss-to-Kill ratio of any fighter in history. I can't vouch for the numbers but the page is a rather interesting read:
The historyofwar.org website has a photo of Brewster Buffalos flying in formation.
Acepilots.com has several more period F2A Brewster Buffalo Photos and more information on the transition of the type from the F2A to F2A-3 configuration and how the changes degraded its performance.
The RCGroups forum has a good shot of a Finnish Brewster Buffalo in Finland air force markings that had been recovered from a lake in Russia. A good portion of the paint is intact, along with the Findland Air Force Swastika markings.
