The 7th Pursuit Squadron was activated on 15 July 1941, designated the 7th Fighter Squadron in 1942, and assigned to the 49th Fighter Group. The squadron's bases followed America's march north from the Solomon Islands as it was based in New Guinea and the Philippines. Pilots from the 7th flew the hottest aircraft in the Army Air Forces including the P-35, P-40, P-47, P-38, and P-51. Today the squadron is designated the 7th Combat Training Squadron, providing qualification training for F-117A stealth fighter pilots. This distinctive aircraft was flown by Lt. Clyde V. Kinsley who added the inscription ‘Typhoon McGoon’ on the left and right hand side of the nose. View other product and find out more about Corgi Classics and Aircraft.
