| Heres a couple more.
Notice that the P39 has a 4 bladed prop. Also, the pilot sits ahead of the wing. Visibility must be really good.

Country: | interesting as I am not much up on the P-39, the US 354th fg as they were forming up here in Oregon used the P-39 with the three blade prop. Was 4 blade a later standard fit ??
