| Very nice just as it is. White 41 could have been in New Guinea in 1942-3 right alongside my White 42. I don't have the book anymore or I would send you pictures. |

| Thanks Don..I didn't know you had done the P40 other than Pistol Packin' Mama..Where is White 42?
I was thinking of Papua New Guinea and Port Moresby when I settled on this look. Just a generic early -N |

| White 42 is Pistol Packin' Mama. Some of them only had the number on the vertical stab. Don't know what happened to he book I used, but it covered all the early fighter squadrons in the Pacific. It was to be an escort for the B-17 which was in Port Moresby. Just got a little carried away with the nose art and 42 is when I was born. |

| ok, I see..
You can tell I borrowed a few tips from your build here and there. You went all in on it and came out with a terrific result. |

| Thanks and you got the look just right. They marked a few different ways and there was a fair amount of nose art, so there are lots of choices. |
