Description
Terrific military aircraft relic, a section of the fuselage of a P-40E 'Warhawk' present at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941. The aircraft the saw service with Gen. Claire Chennault's Flying Tigers in China before being lost in action against the Japanese in New Guinea. The 5 x 3 in. piece of fuselage with a rivet hole was once part of the P-40E 'Warhawk' serial no. 41-3286 whose wreckage was partially recovered in 1978. The relic is affixed to the plexiglass cover of a framed print depicting the plane in aerial combat with a brief history of the aircraft beneath. A great memento of two desperate battles a world apart.
