Looks like an "E" model, too. Not many of this type around. Great pic, Sig!
Good shot erland
Ah, the good old days when the Army still owned the aircraft:-) Only kidding all my Air Force brethren out there. Great shot Sig. You did well to capture this with the old hangar in the background...it is almost the same vintage as the airplane I suspect.

Another great image! You really are treating me (and the other 'wings' fans! Great image of an under-rated fighter. Thanks mate! Love it. And Bill's right! The hanger does look the right era! Rob.

Extraordinary shot! I read Pappy Boyington's book when I was sixteen and since then I'm a fan of the P 40!
I love the drawing on the plane :-) Great shot Sig !

I think it would be thrilling to ride in one of these...not only does it look exciting on the outside, but the ride would be a total rush! Stellar shot!
