P-40C Warhawk in Iceland, 1941. (Jack Cook Collection)
The Curtiss P-40 was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. It was used by the air forces of 28 nations, including those of most Allied powers during World War II, and remained in front line service until the end of the war. By November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built, all at Curtiss-Wright Corporation’s main production facility at Buffalo, New York.

This poor C-47 is in desperate need of a little work. This picture was taken in Kweilin, China, 1943, no other information is known but there must be quite a story behind this.
