Well, there are many here who would disagree.
I can't help but feel that much of the love for the P-40 is based on romanticism as she was outclassed by many of her contemporaries. She performed well everywhere but was never the best fighter, she was just the best fighter available. Clearly the design lent itself to the shark mouth motif better than any other aircraft.
Just my opinion and no more valid than yours my good man.
Cheers,
Jeff
No argument there Jeff. Only thing I would argue she was best at is looking gorgeous!
I enjoyed the rest of the pictures Micdrow! Malcolm hood P-51 was one of my favorites to see and one not commonly seen on the east coast. Can you post the full list of museums you visited? I'd love to take the kids on a longer road trip when they get a little older. So far we are planning on visiting the National Museum of the USAF in Dayton in May.
Fantastic stuff!! Looks like a great trip.
#159 - that's more like it! Titan II.
