Good video... very interested to see the damage to aircraft that managed to make the 200 miles back to base...

New Guinea ! That's what I'm talkin about :)

 

About that P-40 N-5, it belonged to F/O T. R. Jacklin of RAAF No. 75 Squadron. According to notes he lost aileron and about 25 % of the wing area in a mid-air collision. It's actually not unheard of, there were not so few events of aircraft returning to base without part of the wing. That one was actually repaired and was used until the end of hostilities.

Pretty cool seeing them using the inertia starters on them. :)
