This staggerwing arrived shortly after the show started, more down below

Bearcat.  It is so agile for its size, put on an INCREDIBLE display later
Image
Some Japanese plane, flew in the Tora Tora Tora flight

Its not that big actually, much smaller than you would think.  Some of the warbirds tho are MUCH larger than they look from pictures

If memory serves me right, the "Kates" were based on Vindicators;  Zekes on Harvards.
