Guess the Bird!

[Major Lee]

 

For all the aircraft recognition experts out there, let's get a thread going for you to show your expertise. Easy gentleman rules apply.

*First to recognize the aircraft from the clue gets to post the next aircraft. The person posting the picture confirms the ID. 

*Please don't use AI or photo search; this is about what you can figure out.

*The clue image can include the entire aircraft, part of it, or a cockpit image, whatever you like, but give enough to figure it out. 

First image, guess the bird I'm sitting in:

ok. I got it, but do not have an image for the next  ID...so I will pass...

 

but what you see in the picture above is all connected... in a way...

After racking my brain and looking at it over & over, based on the shape of the panel & canopy configuration, I'm guessing it's a P-51B. Doesn't look like a D-Model canopy from the inside.

@Nightshade/PR

Your time frame is correct, but it is not a P51 variant.

My guess is a F4U1A final answer 

[DoctorQuest]

Spitfire? I see camo on the nose. (Or I'm just seeing things....a real possibility) 

What ever it it I don't think that's a stock cockpit for the time frame you mention.

I should have gone with my first guess: P-47 Razorback

P-39Q

my hints were...Bell Aircobra....Bell Cobra

 

will go easy on you...

 

[JulioJunqueira]

It seems to me that is the Curtiss P-40E Warhawk (Kittyhawk IA).
