    What 4 engine T-tail plane might I have seen?

    I agree with special ed. It was probably a BAe 146 British Aerospace 146

    F4F-3 and -4 differences?

    Other than the pitot tube, the number of machine guns, and the folding wings, were there any other external differences between the F4F-3 and F4F-4? Reason I ask is this...... Need to know what details to change.

    Pong's custom aircraft profiles

    A good place for starters is simmers paintshop. They have plenty of tutorials and advice. They've really helped me with my profiles.

    USAAF confirmed kills

    After looking at over the lists, it makes me wonder how many were left off. I noticed Lt. Edward Pogue wasn't on the list. Does this mean that the 7 kills painted on the canopy of his P-51D, Chatanooga Choo-Choo, weren't actual kills? Or did he just suffer the same fate as the submarine...

    P-47 carrier capable?

    That was how tail draggers were catapulted. Search for Korean War pic of Corsairs being catapulted. They're done the same way. Lets not forget the Mustang that the Navy tested for carrier ops. It was fitted with arrestor hook and the like.

    Spitfire Mk.XIV vs P-51D Mustang

    I say slap a RR Griffon in the Mustang, then see how the two compare.

    RAAF Marking's and Codes

    Yes, and as you will notice, the a/c of 3 sqn seem so be on loan from the RAF, as they still retain the RAF serial number, instead of being issued a RAAF serial number. Hence the RAF markings, with the exception of the rudder.

    Foreign Aircraft in Japanese Markings

    Was that a Hurricane (with a tropical cowl) I saw in 2 of those images?

    VVS Serial Numbers?

    Does anyone know if there is a list of VVS aircraft serial numbers? Main interest would be Lend-Lease aircraft. I'm starting to think that they just used the serial number that the lending country had given the aircraft, but I'm not sure. Also, does anyone know if Spitfires used by the USAAF...

    Foriegn Spits

    I'm looking for pics of early Mk spitfires that bore USAAF, VVS, Luftwaffe, IJA or any other markings that of the RAF, RCAF, RAAF or RNZAF.

    Your favorite Pacific battle / campaign to study?

    I chose Open Water, mainly because my main subject of study is American submarine warfare in WW2. Granted, I could have picked ANY of those choices, but I felt Open Water fit best (was half tempted to pick Japanese Home Islands).
