NotesThe Whole Nine Yards: A great read about the operation of an RAAF P-40 that was abandoned, later recovered form Tadji in PNG and restored in New Zealand. It has operational 50 cals and fires blanks at airshows - this aircraft can be seen on you tube. The book has a wealth of info on the restoration and lets modelers like me off the hook about colours. The P-40s restoration is very accurate and interior and exterior colours are covered at length and shows the wide range of possible shades while still being compliant with the FS colours.
