• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

For those that recall the polished early-model P-40 on display at the Planes of Fame air show back in May, there is a recent photo of it just posted to the WIX forums. The aircraft has since completed its designated number of test flights and has had final markings applied. If the aircraft remains under the ownership of The Fighter Collection (based at Duxford, England), the aircraft may be the star of Flying Legends next year, joining the collection's P-40B and P-40F. Hopefully, if before it leaves Chino, there will be/have been a few nice photoshoots with the aircraft (perhaps along with the POF AT-12 seen in the photo).

As linked to in the thread, this is the example for which the historical Chanute Field markings were copied from:
