An interesting pair of production lines. Is that a Republic or a Curtiss factory? The two leading P-40s appear to be different models.

Looking at the aircraft in the line to the left in the image, those look to be P47-Ds. So I would say a Republic factory. ....and I agree the two leading P-40s look to have quite different upper engine cowlings. -- Regards, Savageduck |
