Ever wondered why P-40's have such a large chin intake ?

Nice one Chuck!

You really should start putting together some "walk-arounds"... with the aircraft you get access to, they'd be awesome!

All the best

Well, I don't know why, but a brother of mine has a lot of digital pictures of the inside of a P-40 (I can't remember which model) I'll try to get them on A.S.A.P.) Thanks for your time.

Here's a link to some well done photos of the planes at Chino and other collections of old war birds.
