    Wow, what a great collection. Would love to fly that RCAF Texan/Harvard!

    Wait, isn't that "zero" referenced above really an AT-6 Texan painted red Canadian?

    There is a Zero in the pics that looks like the real mccoy, and not a T-6 with cosmetic work like in "Tora Tora Tora", in the seventh photo. There's the tail from a Mustang, Griffon-engined Spitfire, Zero, and an F8F Bearcat. You can see a little more of the Zero in the closeup of the later-model Spitfire, and in the same photo, the yellow spinner on a Hawker Sea-Fury... The jets that AREN'T the MiG-21 in Czech colors are L-39 Delfins. I'm pretty sure the canopy you can see beyond the Rolls-Royce powered Spitfire is also an AT-6... That red Texan in Canadian colors is really gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your photos!

    And thanks to everyone else for tolerating the aero-geek tourettes moment!

    It looks like it to me. There were four of them that appeared in the movie PT-109.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
