Just came across this:

Scroll down to the P-63 with the swept wings. Never seen or heard of that before. Nice surprise for the day!

BuNos:

90061 Bell L-39-1
P-63A-9 experimentally modified with swept wings for US Navy. Serial reassigned from cancelled RY-3 batch

90062 Bell L-39-2
P-63A-9 as above

Cheers

That would make a cool Model conversion and really shake them up at the contest tables!
