P-63 Kincobra anyone?

I'll have to look at the 3-view I'm using. The drawing above was done using P-63D plans, which I found out had a conventional sliding canopy, not the door. So I found 3-views with the door, and started. Pima Air museum has a P-63, so I can use that as an excuse to visit

The Pima P-63 is an E model if I recall. That would be a nice one to do for your Pima Air Museum series.

Nice.

The 3-view I picked with the door is a P-63C. Although my models are generic enough they could probably represent any version.

If you get this done in time could I enter it in your contest?

Just picked up the new issue of Air Classics last night and it has an article on the RP-63 that looks like some interesting paint jobs.

What is main different between P-39 and P-63? It's look like the same.

I'll see if I can put together a list of the most significant differences for you.

Not one single part from a P-39 will fit onto a P-63!

If you look carefully you will start seeing the differences. Of course, many of the differences are mechanical, and not cosmetic/physical.

Either way they are not the same plane
