When I first saw the commercial for this program I thought it was for AHII.  This would be a great program for AH to advertise during.

I thought this was going to be on the History Channel?  It's on Discovery?

Pretty damn neat stuff.  Can't wait til PC's get the technology to have these kind of graphics.

No, P-400 = P-40+Zero.


One damn good looking plane esp. for a floatplane.  Mitsubishi F1M.

P400 is a P39, the Mk. 1 version or something.  It's still a P39 and that is what they should have called it!:mad:

IIRC the P-400 was an export version of the P-39 that the Army Air Corps took over.
