the P-40Gs
are counted as production not conversion and some of the lend
lease allocations are double counted, so subtract 44 P-40G and
250 Kittihawk IIs and you end up at 13,753. Most of the rest of the
difference is Dean stating there were 4 less P-40N-40s, the last
version, than the serial number lists.


I'm delighted someone is working this out. Will it be published
somewhere, as website or article or book?

(Of course, most historians would be content to round it up to 14,000
aircraft. I follow a rule that once you get past 100, it's very
difficult to be precise about anything.)


all the best -- Dan Ford
