luciz Posted September 9, 2006 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) The Morane Saulnier MS 406 and the Curtiss Hawk 75 equipped the French fighter squadrons during the first months of WWII when l'Armee de l'Air tried to contrast the superiority of the Luftwaffe Messerschmitts. These two planes are the only examples still fliyng today. UInfortunately the Hawk 75 ( the Curtiss fighter before the P40) didn't fly due to engine overheating.

luciz Posted September 10, 2006 Author Share #5 Posted September 10, 2006 Thanks Ken and Ray. These are R8 with 180 Apo and Provia 100, also use a 350 Telyt. In this time am experimenting also the Nikon D2X with 18-70, 80-200 2,8 and 300 2,8 and the reults in terms of sharpness and colour rendition are astonishing.
