Some interesting planes in there. I wonder how many of the ex military ones in the post war years are still flying?
More P-63s than I thought there would be.

Very nice link thanks...
In his autobio 'Tex Johnson - Jet age test pilot'...Tex goes into some detail about prepping the P39 for racing (1946 Thompson)
It is a very interesting read covering test flying the 707,B47 etc as well as earlier testing with Bell.
He also goes into some detail about Barrel Rolling the 707 and B47
