Photos of roadside warbirds and museum collections are most welcome. Photos of aircraft as they are currently displayed are great, but photos of airframes in previous markings, with past owners or during a restoration are fantastic as well. You can help document the history of airframes with photos!

Airframe: Bell P-63C-5-BE Kingcobra, s/n 44-4425 USAAF, c/n 33-1010, c/r N62995
Notes: Chuck Tuckers severely clipped wing P-63 at the 1948 Cleveland Air Races. Chuck did not qualify for competition that year as he had piston troubles with the Allison engine. Prior to Cleveland Chuck had run flight tests with alcohol as a fuel. In an interview with Air Race Historian Oliver Aldrich Chuck would comment that he believed that the piston damage occurred to the Allison during these flight tests as he could never get enough flow of alcohol into the engine because the jets available to him were not large enough and he suspected that he burned a piston during these flight tests. Chuck intentions to run methyl triptane were frustrated. The airplane was sold to Russ Hosler who did could not get it prepared in time for 1949.

Airframe: Falck Special, c/n 1, c/r N60089
Notes: Emil Strasser captured this beautiful image of Bill Falcks Rivets when Bill and airplane were entered in the 1948 Goodyear Class Races. This is another image that all of us owe a debt of gratitude to Gerry Liang for both preserving it and making it available to fellow historians.
