"Does anybody have a serial number list for the aircraft in this collection?"

- P-40E, "Curtissaurus Rex" is AK752
- F4U-5 is 122184
- P-51D is ex- Leroy Penhall N6519D, 44-74012
- Seafire FR. 47 is VP441
- T-34A is 53-4114; Aerial Visuals
- Harvard MkIV is RCAF 20400
- A-37B is 69-6439; Aerial Visuals
- BT-13B is 79-1682; Aerial Visuals
- Stearman PT-27 is 42-15591; Aerial Visuals
- DH-82 Tiger Moth is DE 995; Aerial Visuals
- T-33A is 57-0565
- C-47A is 42-23414; Aerial Visuals

I think that is all that you would be interested in.

There is a "1970 CANADAIR CF-5A “FREEDOM FIGHTER” on a pole there, but they don't list any info and I couldn't find any.

Can any Vultee experts chime in with a USAAF serial for this? The highest MSN I could find on the Baugher list was 79-1366/42-90369; if the MSNs stayed sequential from there it would be 42-90685, but that serial doesn't seem to tie in with any that Baugher has listed as SNV-2 conversions. I'm guessing there was a break in the MSNs somewhere?
