In the background of pictures #4, #7 and #11

Are those Dauntless's or Shrikes or what?

Thanks

Shay--

They're Dauntlesses; given how close the colour appears to be to the shade on the Merlin Mustang prototype, implying they may also be OD, I'd guess they're AAF A-24s...

I'd say that the aircraft in the background of the fourth photo are indeed probably A-24s as Steve T. says. It's hard to tell in the image, but besides the apparent similarity of the paint jobs, they also appear to have AAF tail numbers.

The aircraft in the background of the other photos are undoubtedly Navy birds, as they wear tri-color schemes...

Nice stuff...
