Originally destined for the Chinese Air Force this aircraft was diverted to the US 5th Air Force in the Pacific and assigned to the 7th Fighter Squadron.
Some 20 yrs later she was found abandoned in an old airfield in Papua New Guinea, recovered from there, along with many other assorted WW2 wrecks, the P40 was exported to New Zealand. After going through several hands in Australia she was eventually restored to flying condition in 2002. Now held by a French group the P40 has appeared at various air shows since 2008.
Immaculately finished in the colours of the 7th Fighter Squadron of the WW2 period the P40 is a magnificent reminder of the iconic P40 series. The 7th Fighter Squadron is still in service with F22 Raptors - just a wee bit different!
The image shows a group of 7th Squadron P40s on patrol in the Pacific area.
Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight

Great colour scheme. This gives a terrific sense of 'being there' with them.

Thanks Gary, quite a history behind this P40 - amazing what they can rebuild from ( dreadful sentence, sorry!)
