SinisterVampire319 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I finally got around to getting the 1/48 Airfix P-40B. I want to do Welch's aircraft from the December 7 morning. A few questions. Has there ever been any photos of Welch's or Taylor's P-40's released? Is there any other info on how they were dressed, besides wearing formal tuxedo pants? Shirt or flight jacket? Flight helmet or just headphones and mic? Does anyone make a good seated figure in lightweight flight gear that could be modified into them? Thanks for any help.

Unless your Google is better than my Google I haven't found any photos of their aircraft, or them on that day. A few things on pilot figures. But I know there is more available out there. Google doesn't always give you everything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SinisterVampire319 Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 Thanks Niels, I try to find one. What I meant by Google not having everything. Is I have found stuff from Asian and Eastern European companies that are ghosts to Google. Alan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sonoran Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I don’t think any photos of the two famous P-40s from 12/7/41 are known to exist. We know the side numbers from their log books. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
