Does anyone have a photo of a plane where you can read Confederate Air Force on it, not the new name? Would prefer an American plane but will take what I can get. A P51 or P40 would be the ultimate! Thanks!

An Ole Rebel who takes exception to the new name.

Here is a link to a thread that has a picture of Mike Dillons' P-40 in its Red with Confederate Air Force stenciled on it. Also try Googling CAF images and some more show up such as Lefty Gardiner's P-38.

Sorry I can't post a direct link, but this one always makes me smile.

Go to:
http://www.dmwtbook.com/commercials.html

Then to page two (of three) center(sic ;) ) bottom: Confederate Air Force.

Somebody's up there's gonna be watching...

I saw a P-39 model kit at a hobby shop yesterday with Confederate Air Force on the box art!

There is an old thread (April 18, 2008) subject: CAF SIRSHO PHOTOS FROM THE PAST.

It contains several photos with the early markings. Enjoy. John
