Curtiss P-40 in Brazil

Second book in the series, "Curtiss P-40 in Brazil" tells the history of this famed
US fighter in the Brazilian Air Force (FAB). Used between 1942 and 1954, the P-40
Warhawk was the first aircraft to serve in the FAB able to carry out fighter and
air defense missions in Brazil during World War II. The P-40 was instrumental in
establishing the structure of the FAB Fighter Aviation. At the end of the conflict,
all P-40s were concentrated in Canoas, becoming synonymous with the lst/14th
Aviation Group - "Pampa" Squadron", the Unit which had the privilege of using
the Warhawks for a decade until their retirement, 60 years ago.
