Are there many of these vintage aircraft still standing? I know the Mustang was used in Europe in WWII was the Wildcat also? Balliolman

I think they only saw limited action at the begining of the war. They were renamed: Grumman Marlett  I know, not the greatest shot but one of my first attempts with a very slow shutter speed.

The first "Martlets" entered service in September 1940, and achieved the first "kill" for any American-built fighter in British service on Christmas day of that year, when a German Ju-88 was forced down near Scapa Flow.
