These are very nice, well done. Are they 1:48th?
Any chance, please, of a bit of info, such as kits used, unit and any other interesting history? The P-51 is of course 361st FG, the F4U and F4F VF17 and VF-22 respectively, but the Luftwaffe ones are not really my field.
Thanks, and again ,very well done!

Hi, thanks for the comments....always appreciated.
All are 1:48 apart from the P51 and Corsair 167 which are 1:72 Tamiya.
Pics 1 & 2 are Tamiya FW 190 A3, Hptm Hans "Assi" Hahn, Kommandeur III/JG2 Cherbourg, July '42.
Pics 3 & 4 are Hasegawa 109 F2, Oblt Werner Molders, Kommandeur JG51 Eastern front, July '41.
The "Spit" is a Tamiya Vb in the markings of Flight Lieutenant W "Johnny" Johnson based at Deanland, Kent and flying low level support over Sword beach on D-Day.
Of the Bf 109's the Eto is Tamiya 109 E3 of Gruppenkommandeur Adolf Galland, III/JG26, France 1940 and white 12 is again Tamiya but 109 E7 Trop of Oblt Joachim Muncheberg, VII/JG26 Gela airfield, Sicily March '41.
Finally, Hellcat "00" is Eduard F6F-3 of Commander James H Flatley, CV-10 USS Yorktown, May '43.
Hope this is of interest, thanks, John.
