To the best of my knowledge, she's still a F/O.

Well, it looks like the corner of a shark's mouth in the upper right hand corner, and she's leaning on what looks like the nose of a P40 landing gear fairing. Was a -115 Allison ever used in P40s?
Cheers,
Wes

XBe02Drvr,
That's what I'm scratching my head about, too. It does look like a P-40, but I've never heard of a -115 being installed in one.
I tried to look it up after I posted that, but so far, have found nothing.

I feel ya, Glider (but I'd rather feel her! )

...and just like that, there's the answer.
Thanks to our buddy, Tomo Pauk, for providing the info.
You're the man, Tomo!
