Oshkosh 2022 | Curtiss P-40 Warhawk The shark mouth of Flying Tigers nose art that adorned the fuselages of the famed American Volunteer Group (AVG) is one of the best known examples of nose art in WWII. The Curtiss P-40 served in almost every theater of the Second World War. Both praised and cursed, it bore much of the brunt of the air warfare. With no supercharger, it was designed as a medium-altitude fighter. Still, it was available in large quantities and was both sturdy and docile. So, it withstood the punishment battle well.

Oshkosh 2022 | Vought F4U Corsair The F4U Corsair looks quite distinctive with its gull wings. It also makes a distinctive sound caused by noise from the engine and wing-root air inlets, which earned it the nick-name “Whistling Death” The “bent wings” allowed deck clearance of its large 13′ 4″ propeller. And, the large prop allowed for a R-2800 Double Wasp, 18 cylinder double radial 2250 horsepower engine. It could out fight, out climb, and out run any prop driven enemy aircraft at the time.
