Kittyhawk II, S/Ldr Brian Eaton, 3 Sqn RAAF,
Italy, 1943
Aircraft repainted in the very rare (for P-40F/L's)
scheme of Dark Eath/Dark Green/Sky Gray. Kit built by Jon Bond, armor
modeler extraordinaire, taking a shot at building aircraft kits. Great
job!

P-40L-2-CU, "Veronica", 2/Lt Erwin R Silsbee, 86FS/79FG, Italy, 1944
This unique scheme was painted by the pilot
himself. He found green paint on the base, either British or Italian,
and repainted the fuselage for better camouflage from the sides when
flying ground attack missions in the deep Italian valleys.
Black canopy and rails.
