The Tamahwak was another aircraft with wonderful lines, like the Spitfire. Most people like the Corvair, with it's gullwings. It really is perfect for any display of stuff from the pacific. I have a thing for the p47. Lots of funny stories about them being so bullet riddles (over 400 holes) that the pilot could not escape, but was able to fly home anyway. The Mosquito was splendid, Good knowledge! I was lucky enough to inherit a commemorative mosquito ashtray my grandfather took from an airbase in Scotland he was stationed at. It's really cool.
