This P-40B is my second, "exemplary" work. Its creation is described in the "Virtual Airplane" book.
I use similar methods in my further models.

Here is a classic "shark-mounth" P-40B, standing near an airstrip, somewhere in China...
It contains a single p40b.blend
file, tested with Blender 2.69. All the necessary images are packed inside. Note: in Blender 2.8 switch all the color textures mode from "raw" to "sRGB" (in the Node Editor)
Here you can also download a zip file with the model for Blender 2.49 (22 MB). It contains a directory with two background pictures, and the Blender model (in Blender 2.49 background images cannot be packed into file).
It was published under so-called Blender Artistic License
