Yes but please open another thread for that.

oh what i meant is that i read some bios but they dont tell the pilots thoughts, seem to be written by a 2nd person

if there was a real hartman self bio i think he would go extensively into the reasons of the breakdowns

edit:

im trying to remain on topic

i miss a pilot bio to be written by himself not an outside person

Always facinating. Two years ago i was in Russia visiting a friend. He have pictures taken from a small village where an old farmer have stored away "German leftovers"

I know there is some "higher" political debate conserning these "objects" but realy hope that they find a way to get "these" things to western europe. They looked in prime condition.

I have always been happy about animals. The black cat and the bigger brother with stripes. I would love to have one "black cat" and two cats "with stripes" roaring like a maybach engine moving more gentle through the hills than tracks on tanks ;)

sooo there is a farmer in Russia with a tiger and panther tank in his barn....be a good lad and PM his address :) ill check my PM after i get some vodka and bread to trade for the "leftovers" :)

may i remind you of your first post:
So where is the need for your self defense actually.
Get lost numb nut!!

Anyone know whats going to happen to the P40?

Too bad the painted serial numbers were sand blasted off over time.

And I'm surprised there are no pics of the builder's plate.

It's gotta be in there.

there are a lot of rumours going on, but apparently there's a fair chance the RAF will get there and take it back to the UK, or so I was told by a close friend who works for the AF.

Well I hope so, be a shame to see that lost.

+1 to that.

It deserves a better fate than to be cut up and sold for scrap in some bazaar in Cairo.

I had hoped the RAF would intervene. I know the US Navy considers all of it's crashed aircraft to still be the property of the USN.
