На фейсбучной странице музея Niagara Aerospace Museum попадаются интересные фотографии. Особенно нажористо по продукции фирм Bell и Curtiss.
1. Bell P-39 modified with a 350 gallon belly tank. In September 1942, test pilot Jack Woolams became the first person to fly a fighter aircraft coast to coast over the United States without stopping. There was also additional fuel tanks in the nose section.
2. On this day in history, April 6, 1938 the Bell P-39 Airacobra made its first flight.
Картинка, конечно, к этому событию отношения не имеет. Зато она эффектная!
3. A perfect picture for todays weather. A Bell P-63 on skies.
4. An authentic WWII Russian Pilots Uniform is now of display with Miss Lend Lease, our Bell P-39Q Airacobra.
