Hi all

I too did the same maths. Can't get any one to confirn this though. If it does happen, this must be the first time in a while that 4 P-40's fly together.

: I have just checked out the WOW2002 there are some interes
: ting news items.

: It says that Pioneer Avspecs are working on three aircraft
: to appear. One is the La-9 for the OFMC, and 'two Curtiss
: P-40's are being rebuilt for American owners'. One will b
: e Jerry Yagen's. Who owns the other one?
:
: Later on there is a mention that the 'new P-40E will be jo
: ined by the very rare RNZAF P-40E owned by Ray Hanna'. Doe
: s this mean that Ray is taking the OFMC P-40 home?

: And Garth Hogan and Charles Darby will be taking their P-4
: 0N.

: That makes four P-40s. Can anyone confirm any of this?
