Chino Pix

[syscom3]

I would be remiss in not providing some pix for the Brits. Heres the Hurricane. It doesnt look as glamorous as the Spit, but it does look business like.

While I like both the Spit and the Hurricane, I like the Hurricane a bit more.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

The P38 is my favorite plane.

The final pix is the P38 going into a low altitude roll........... I only got one pix as I had to watch it....... as with everyone in the airshow, we collectively had to reassure each other what we had seen was true. No, even though this is California, we did not sing Kumbay-ya and hug each other.

Nice. The P-38 is a beauty!

 

[Gnomey]

god the canopy looks ugly and huge on that 1st 'stang pic......

 

[syscom3]

It probably looks huge cause its pulled back.

 

[lesofprimus]

Lanc, if u didnt know that, u deserve a kick in the nuts......

 

[Erich]

Stangs........yes !

 

[syscom3]

Notice that the P39 has a 4 bladed prop. Also, the pilot sits ahead of the wing. Visibility must be really good.

interesting as I am not much up on the P-39, the US 354th fg as they were forming up here in Oregon used the P-39 with the three blade prop. Was 4 blade a later standard fit ??
