Title: USAAC P-40B, 79th PS, 20th PG, Hamilton Field, California 1940
Post by: Mr. Bill on 14 May , 2018, 10:08: Greetings!

New tool Airfix kit of the Curtiss P40B Warhawk completed in the U.S. Army Air Corp colour scheme for the 79th Pursuit Squadron, 20th Pursuit Group at Hamilton Field, California in 1940. Airfix has done a great job with this kit and it comes together very easily straight from the box. I did not use the kit decals and went with the excellent Starfighter Decals 1/72 Pre-War USAAC P-40B set #72-134.

Many thanks for having a look, questions and comments always welcome!

Bill
