Great photos! Great airplane! Not the right war for it, though. The French preferred the P-63 for CAS but we had them in only small numbers for some inexplicable reason, like giving them all to the commies.
 
The first one I ever saw was Conquest One at Reno in the late 1960's,

and then Rare Bear in the early 1970's.

I don't think I saw a 'stock' one until the mid 1970's. They have a slightly different look when stock...

Great pictures of a big beautiful brute of an airplane.
