This P-40 was written off in a fatal ground collision at Gordon airfield, Australia in 1944. The remains were recovered from Queensland and following an extensive rebuild as a two-seater in California it was allocated registration N540TP in July 2004. It made its first flight post-restoration on January 24th 2009. This photo is copyright © Gerry Barron, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
