Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.

Thanks again for your patience,

  • Who's P-40?

    This photo was taken at Orange County, CA in March 1959.
    Any one know where this bird ended up?

    This P-40 is now N95JB with John MacGuire at the War Eagles Air Museum.

          Isn't this the same P-40 in that famous black and white poster? It's almost a head on shot, with (what looks like) a four blade prop?

          Marauder, these are great photos, and a great challenge to the group. Keep 'em coming. I'll provide info where I can. Any pictures I would have would come out of a book or magazine. I'd hate to Plagiarize them.

            Four bladed

            The P-40 with the 4-bladed prop would be Gil Macy's at the time. It also had a modified canopy and was a weather modification plane before that, so I doubt it's the same Warhawk.
            There is a Nut Tree poster of it in flight.
            It was later restored to "stock" condition in AVG markings by Tom Camp. Not sure where it is now.
