I can identify three of these planes: P-38, Grumman torpedo bomber and P-51. The one at closest plane is a ? to me.
Looks like another P-51. Am I mistaken?
Of course it's a P-51, just an earlier B or C model.

Holy cow! Those birds are pretty.
A very cool four-pack of classic WWII warbirds!
Cliff731 Has it right.

Is this print available for purchase? These are my husband's favorite- all in one picture !
Beautiful set of the best WWII aircraft! Seen in Daily Newsletter!
love, Love, LOVE this!!!
Cliff is right on again..P-51A with markings of the 1st air commando group
You can tell it's an A because of the 3 blade propeller, and the intake above the engine, Allison engine has a different sound than the Merlin...same sound as a P-40
Sam, thanks for the kind words... and you are right about the P-51 "A" model. Too, it's fairly easy to confuse a P-51A with the A-36A, unless the latter's dive brakes are visible, which I'm sure you already know!
Cliff, that A-36 still flying? Collings foundation owns it
