Brett Gentz's P40d.jpg
This Little P-40 was built from the Guillows plan you see in the image. It is the first aircraft plan ever posted on the SMM site. It is a plan of the Prototype P-40. It was also the 1st build the group did and the 1st model from that build. The coloration was inspired by the Flying Aces cover in the image from Kenny Horne's site. Brett sent me the model all the way from Australia as a gift. The woodgrain shows through the finish and it is as smooth as glass. Thankyou Brett, RFB

this beautiful model and the plan seem to be based on the later condition of the XP-40 whereas the Flying Aces cover shows its initial condition with the ventral radiator and short carburettor intake near the canopy.
