Does anyone have any shots of Del Carmen field? They were the aircover for Clark.

3. Probably one of my rarest photos - unfortunately, not very clear. A row of PAAC P-26s, which appear to be camouflaged. Again, date and location unknown. I'll bet some of these were flown by Jesus Villamor and his mates in combat! Here is my analysis of the July 1941 Zablan Photo P-26 flightline. Below is a ground level closeup. Notice the US roundel on the wings. Notice the hangar in the background during the July 41 parade. MacArthur was present on this day. For references, I am attaching the ff: USAAC emblems that the PAACs originally had: USAAC 3rd Pursuit Squadron USAAC 17th Pursuit Squadron P-26A of the 17th PS at Iba Airfield early 41. Note the True Blue Fuselage and Yellow Wings. Notice the weathering on the wheel spats that shows the Natural metal color. Below is the "other side" of the Zablan P-26s flightline: FWIW, Tony Is this natural metal or is this another case of perennial issue of type of film used, exposure, etc..??

My analysis is natural metal for the P-26s in the background. The P-26 in the foreground is still in the former US livery of True Blue 23 and Chrome Yellow Wings. It was evident that they used Panchromatic film on the lower photo. An orthochromatic film would make the lighter colors appear more darker. Below is a photo of a P-26 in stripped down to its NMF state in the Philippines. FWIW,

I've got a picture of the Condor when they pulled it up out of the water - I'll try to post it when I get a chance.

PAAC P-26 AVIATION PAINTINGS 5 different interpretations of theri color schemes. This was a mural in the old Manila International Airport. Does not exist anymore. This one shown is the 306 by Lt Godofredo M. Julianofrom an aviation book I have, there is another one I still have to get. Here is the 307 I took this from the AFP museum, I don't know who the Artist was. Sorry the 305 Mount Samat Museum, Do not know the Artist also. This one is by Artist Daniel Dizon. In his studio, Angles City? And lastly for the moment, Box Art from HobbyCraft One of a rare kind on the PAAC. Herewe have the 306 again by Lt. Godofredo M. JulianoThe decals were consulted from Tony Feredo and Mel Silvestre. That third painting from the AFP museum is done by Castor Amper "Air battle over Batangas"

Well lookie here......... :o A bit weird with the "spaghetti" music, but hey it's something. We've got to help this kid with some PA and PAAC reenactment shots. I wonder how we could get in touch with him? Oh hello kind sir I see you have stumbled upon my old work from my youtube account, yes I'm in dire need of help, I Started this project from an all the gathered facts and a movie idea my airforce historian uncle wrote and collected along his career, so far I've made another revised video for this proposed project, We've forwarded this to 2 commanding generals in the past sad to say, it has not gotten any support yet but we're still pushing this project even on fumes :p <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_TP1IqWpmww?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_TP1IqWpmww?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object> here's the revised teaser, I know it's not that perfect yet, this is just a concept pre-teaser to show for producers and directors who'll potentially get interested with the movie idea. hoping someone would reply

Well lookie here......... [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP1RcJlDQns&feature=related [/youtube] A bit weird with the "spaghetti" music, but hey it's something. We've got to help this kid with some PA and PAAC reenactment shots. I wonder how we could get in touch with him? Oh hello kind sir I see you have stumbled upon my old work from my youtube account, yes I'm in dire need of help, I Started this project from all the gathered facts and a movie idea my airforce historian uncle wrote and collected along his career, so far I've made another revised video for this proposed project, We've been forwarding this to the philippine airforce commanding general but has not yet met his appointment. This idea is already in the airforce documents and has been published for a public call for investors. [youtube] www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TP1IqWpmww[/youtube] here's a revised concept pre-teaser to show for producers and directors who'll hopefully get interested with the concept. If anyone of you are interested in this concept and know where to lead the way for private help, I wish this 5 year project of ours has not gone to waste, for this story must be told for our current generation to be aware of our past heroes deeds and sacrifices. nobody outside the airforce knows who villamor is, philippines is now a country filled with brain washed children who is oblivious of our once proud heritage. ps you can send me an email at jambs042@yahoo.com or in my youtube account or here in this forum, thank you kind sir! -jambs04

Nice work on the aerial dogfights jambs04 specially the close up formation of the P-26's. Very rare to see something like this about the PAAC come to life!
With the opera music reminds of Porco Rosso. I know Villamor attacked some Japanese bombers. Thanks for posting a new version.
Can you do torpedo boats in action?

thank you for the kind words Legionnaire, I probably can if and when I have the time and the energy. animation like these takes a lot of time and stages to execute. why'd you ask?

Great work Jambs. I hope it gets picked up and funded. Is the end product supposed to be a documentary? I wonder if one of the local network TV companies would be interested in picking it up, funding it, and showing it for say an independence day special.

thank you VeeVee, well it could be a documentary but we're aiming for something more ambitious like a full featured movie, like flyboys or the redbaron kind of war movie, tho at this point we're open to make it in any whichway it happens to be just as long as this becomes a realized show.

So there's no screenplay or film treatment yet? I wonder if you could get a film student to write one to show and pitch to say ABC-CBN/Star Cinema. They did Baler, they may get interested in a WW2 PAF theme movie. Of course there's got to be a love story in it ;D

LOL yeah there's a pre-written script but it's in its rough unedited form, (*with a love story between a dame and lt. Basa) drawn some rough storyboard for it and even conceptualized who would be the best local actors who would play the parts. I'm a Multimedia artist for 5 years now, My family heritage was with the airforce (grandfather was an airforce Commanding general in Basa, was one of the first mustang pilots, flew in the peace keeping operations in congo.) my dad was a huey pilot and squadron commander in 410th (now out of the service) an uncle who's currently an Active colonel in the PAF and since then I have been dreaming to produce a local pinoy war movie, This is our first time trying to get inside a local movie industry and it is getting difficult for us to get some leads. but still hanging though ;D

Wow what a proud lineage. I sure hope some producer gets interested and develops the idea into a full movie. I have the same hopes for a Bataan movie. Please keep us up to date. Who did you have in mind to play Lt. Basa
