Corgi AA35215 Curtiss Kittyhawk 1A Royal Air Force N94466(AK933/S-UE) Named Sneak Attack Formerly owned and operated by the Old Flying Machine Company, at Duxford

(As preserved in airworthy condition by John R. Paul / Warhawk Air Museum at Boise, ID, USA) The Kittyhawk was the name given by the British Commonwealth airforces to the P-40E model and subsequent variants. though not a first rate high altitude dogfighter, the Kittyhawk with its long range, bomb load and armour, became a formidable low-level fighter-bomber. This P-40E was originally Deliverd to the Royal Canadian Air Force as '1057', then sold on the civil register as N94466 in 1942, being owned by a succession of private owners until it was bought as a hulk by John R. Paul of Boise, Indiana, in 1966, who fully rebuilt it and flew it from Livemore, CA, in 1970. Painted as an RAF Kittyhawk in desert camoflage with 'Sharkmouth' nose markings, it was given the serial 'AK933' and the code letters 'SU-E' as a tribute to Johns wife! N94466 was seen in the UK during 1984-89 when it was leased to the Old Flying Machine Company at Duxford and flown at many UK air shows by Ray and Mark Hanna.
