RCAF P40 Kittyhawk
Full cockpit veiw has slight nose down ac1 for bomb ac6 vtol down for landing gear next up RCAF MKIV Mustang aka p51 In the middle of May 1940 Canada had its first look at the Curtiss P-40. At that time a party of American officers flew to Uplands Airport near Ottawa where they saw the XP-40 and a Spitfire I had flown in comparative tests. Wing Commander F.V. Beamish (RAF) and Squadron Leader E.A. McNab were critical of the XP-40, feeling that although it had its merits; it was not as good a fighter as the Spitfire, an opinion which the wartime use of the two types proved. Nevertheless, in 1941-42 there were not enough Spitfires for everyone, and both overseas and in Canada, RCAF squadrons found themselves flying Tomahawks and Kittyhawks, aircraft which proved quite equal to the tasks assigned to them.

@Cedy117 ok
Ohh ok that makes it way easier I'll try have a go at it im almost done my ship I'm working on then I'll have a go at it @bjac0
@Cedy117 hey cedy, remember the ka-17 flying tank? No? Well, anyways, i was thinking, since there are now fuselage blocks, maybe you could attempt creating the beast once again, if you feel up to the challenge, if so then good luck.
