Curtiss P-40E Kittyhawk Mk 1A
Two P-40s are seen. This trivia site claims that the airframes used were registration N5672N, c/n 18723 and registration N1207V, c/n 18796. However, AeroVintage also mentions that TP-40N registration N923 may have been used. Ultimately, I have not found any conclusive evidence for which specific airframes appear here.
