Congrats all!

Damian, thank you -- the P-40 has had a bum rap for too long!

I'm in total agreement Fred, but the real thanks go to Bob (Bigrip74) and Hermon (VonCuda) for getting this Campaign going. I just took over the helm when Bob had to take leave and move house. Don't get me wrong, I'm quite happy to take ALL of the credit, but then I wouldn't be able to sleep at night

Cheers, D

Sorry guys, it looks like I missed a couple sorting through the 20+ entries. I've sent the corrections to Rowan and they have now been added.

Just for future reference, and too late for some (but my defence is that I only found this out last Saturday) it's safe to say that the aircraft used British Sutton harnesses, even those in the Med.
