Auto Credit Based on EpicPigster1's Curtiss P-40E Kittyhawk

Well, after a month, I'm proudly releasing the glourious P-40 of the 11th Fighter Squadron/ 343rd Fighter Group. (Flying Tigers). I've experimented with the tiger which admittedly, doesn't look all too great, but progress is progress. Features include a cockpit, gunsight, paint job, opening canopy, working artificial horizon and much more!

Thanks to temporaryaccount and EpicPigster1 for helping out on this build.

Controls:
VTOL - Flaps
TRIM - Trim
AG1 - Open Canopy
AG2 - Drop fuel tank

    Well, remember how you wanted a P-47D? You happen to be in luck (kind of). I'm currently making a P-47N, though it's way over 800 parts, but maybe you'll be interested? @Zerokiller3

    Maybe, but as @AquaDynamixx implied, I might want to vary it up a bit later on, especially since I need to get the 747 done. @temporaryaccount

    @CoolPeach I know right, it's so hard to drag a jet engine from the part menu...

    I've basically restarted with all the fusalage and the wings. However, the basic body is done, I just need to do the interior, LG, engines, turrets, and paint job. I've been really busy the past month, so I haven't much time to work on it. Should have time when school years finishes. @F4f879

    @CoolPeach Ok. I would love to see a Lancaster but after that please make a P-47 with under 800 parts later on.

    I promised a Lancaster, so that'll have to be first. Maybe later?

    Could, but he flew the earlier P-40 models, plus I’m not great at people, that’s why you never see people in my planes. @DarthAbhinav

    More of a Dapper Nectarine, if you ask me. But forget that - this couldn't be better if there was a little scale model of John Wayne in the 'pit.

    Freakin' awesome is the term I would use to describe this,, I think.
