Just one shot here of a lovely p-39 airocobra. I'm very fond of this plane and unfortunately I saw its bigger brother the p-63 crash a few years ago so here is my tribute.

It's the same site with those nice BF-109s and FW-190s, in Hanger 3 at the top of the page.  They have a very nice repaint for it as a Soviet P-39 in the repaint part... Smiley

Very nice shot Pete.

P.S. I love the 39 too. Grin  My fourth favorate bird, after the; P-47, P-38, P-40, and then P-39.

Yes Sock is right its from that japanese site.

Its a sleek looking bird and is the first WW2 fighter to have trycicle undercarraige. It is a plane with great firepower and oh how I love that nose cannon.
