  Mark. This is decidedly a "wish it was mine " image. Superb!
Being an older guy who lived through WW2 and always interested in military aircraft I would appreciate you telling us what this 1940's fighter is. As most US fighters (P51 Mustang and P38 Lightning excepted) had radial engines like the one you show us here I can't decide what it is as I would need to see the wings and tail fin to make an educated guess.
A well deserved Photo of the Dday, Mark. Pete

  Thanks for all the positive buzz.. I know how hard it is to float to the top these days! Peter wanted to know what type of aircraft? It's a It's a Canadian variant of a North American AT-6.


Best Always,

Mark

  Thanks Mark. So not a fighter but a WW2 advanced trainer. In the UK it was known as a 'Harvard' and in the USA a 'Texan' but thanks again for sharing it with us. Pete

  Outstanding B&W image of this Texan T6 as I know it! Several years ago I got to take one up and if it can be done we did it! Not very fast but lots of power and a joy to fly...
Big congratulations on this well deserved POTD, Mark!!! Outstanding!!!
