Too bad more pre-war Curtiss types don't survive.I
I'd love to see a Hawk or hear one of their engines (aside from an OX-5, but they're cool too).

How'd that pesky P-39 sneak in there? Oh well, any port in a storm. :wink:

Very nice selection of photos including a couple of really unique ones. For example, had never seen the one of the P-40 equipped with wing tanks. Thanks Mark!

I love the photos, but why can't I download and save them?

That's because Flickr can't find a way to stop idiots from being idiots. Any photo(s) you want send me a PM and I'll get them to you.

All those WWII pictures and older, but the one picture of the P-40Q at the Cleveland Air Races.
And this one of P40-AK979 N5672N at Burbank on the 1950's pop2
