…of Airwar ’74.
Not for ‘Action Men’ but here are few more colour shots from a roll of colour negative, possibly my first ever, that has surfaced in my current archive trawl.
The Mustang shots may be of particular interest.
I was not very impressed with the prints at the time but clearly poor processing was a contributing factor.
Another joy was to find that I also had all this lot, Transpo ’72 and CWH, ‘in action’ on 8mm movie.

Fascinating look back. Some of the paint jobs are rather good and others leave something to be desired but the civvy schemes are almost the most interesting to look back on. Some amusing variations on the Stars & Bars.
Thanks M12.

Well, certainly different to nowadays with everything in warpaint! Thanks for posting those!
Any idea why the odd cockpit arrangement on the P40?

Lovely pics. Photos of warbirds are NEVER dull! Amazing how incongrous they look in civilian colours!
