Have you guys given up already?

I’m using “USAAF Fighters Part1” by them, the only alternative would be the CW-24B, which I doubt it can be!
By: GDL - 6th September 2004 at 11:59

Me too, Engine intakes and cockpit differ, Still scanning some books, But it may well be lt, Tally Ho! Phil
By: GDL - 6th September 2004 at 11:36
Good try guys, but keep guessing. 🙂
By: Papa Lima - 6th September 2004 at 11:27
The shape of the fins is right for the XP-55, but not the side air intakes! However 3 were built and extensively modified, so I still reckon that’s the one!
By: STORMBIRD262 - 6th September 2004 at 11:12
Well done Glenn
I will go with Papa 🙂 , It looks like a P-55, I posted a pic a while back, But side on, Been looking at it for a while 😮 , Not 100% as it looks a little different someways :rolleyes: , Good picks Glenn 😀 , I am still collecting for my next lot, As this is Historic I think I will go from very early to say late 70s, Cheers, Tally Ho! Phil :diablo:( even looking at these I am still not 100%)
By: Papa Lima - 6th September 2004 at 08:19
I think number 4 must be a Curtiss P-55 Ascender

Hi BLR,
Yes on one, two, and three. Still got the fourth to go. 🙂
The Ki-109 was the heavy interceptor version developed from the Ki-67.
By: BLR - 6th September 2004 at 08:05
First one is a Canadian Car and Foundry FBD-1 and the second is a Rikugun KI-93. The third looks like a Peggy, is it the KI109 version?
Brian
By: GDL - 6th September 2004 at 04:59
Close for the first and third one, keep going on the rest. 🙂
By: crazymainer - 6th September 2004 at 04:45
Glenn,
Well lets see,
The first is a Canadian Copy of the Grumman Flying Barral very heavly mods. by them can’t remmeber who build it .
The Second looks to be a DH Hornet with a experimental engines.
The Third is a Mitsubishi Ki-67 “Peggy” with its nose change for Kamikazi attacks
The Last one looks to be the “Shindo” or a SAAB.
Cheers Crazymainer
