It appears in Osprey's 'P-40 Warhawk Aces of the Pacific' and is credited to a guy named Jack Cook. But that can't be,
since its appearance in a book is said to be doubtful.

It also appears in a book about the 44th FS, the title of which escapes me, as well as a Koku-Fan type of publication
which I cannot name 'cuz I can't read Japanese.

It's also been published in a number of monthly rags over the years.


Fade to Black...

Here's a few shots I took of AAM's P-40M at Gennie 2007. I wonder if this is the only flying M model?
