The Coronado is most impressive...thanks for those, Gary.

Now, I don't wish to sound ungrateful, but on your other Pensacola post you mentioned Brewster Buffalo pics. Are you maybe waiting for Christmas Day to post? :wink:

The P-40 or H-81-A2 is significant to Navy in that a majority of the AVG pilots were Navy and Marine corps pilots.This was put on display back in 94 and is the first early p-40 to have been seen in the states since the war.

Thanks so much for the photos, Gary - especially the Brewster :D ; talk about bringing it back from the dead... nice job!

Was the Vindicator previously displayed in pre-war colors after it was restored?

Great pics! Thanks for those of the Coronado. Can't believe it still exists. The Brewster Bermuda is another type brought back from extinction. They really did a good job. Nice pics of the VIndicator as well. It's the super rare stuff that is so neat, IMO.
Merry Christmas!
