This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Let me guess. The Spitfire, the 109, and the GSB Avenger are models.

Spit, 109, GSB Avenger, and the early P-40.

The P-40 is a current warbird, the 109 and Spit are models.

On the P-40, you can see the civi registration number, and the markings on the runway are modern.

Nice way to insert a few modern warbirds among the old. Those moderns are always to clean!

Mark says "couple" - which means two and only two. (Anything different than two would be a trick question)
I agree with Steve Dickey and Scooby: Spitfire and Me.109; everything else seems to have details on the craft or in the background that I do not think could be modeled at a small scale. Though I have to say that the multiple shadows on the P-63 are suspect.
I assume that we can assume that there to no photoshopping of a model onto another image that provides period background?

Except that there are four 'moderns' in there.

Spitfire and 109 are the models here.

Models? I think you may be right: I'd assumed that all photos were of genuine aircraft but four (by my reckoning) were modern warbirds, rather than period (the F-86 (Canadair Sabre 1) is 'period' by the way). However now I look again I agree that the Spitfire (MH434) and 109 photos do look more like models.
The full-size 109 is now in the RAF Museum while the 1:1 Spit is still a regular flier.
