Second picture is an A-26 and a TBM.
The third picture is a slipper tank for a Spitfire, I'm guessing.
The first picture is too dark and blurry to tell anything.

Too big for a Tigercat. It's possibly an A-26, though I'm not convinced of that at all. I don't know what that dark thing is on the bottom side of the wing just outboard of the nacelle. The picture is out of focus, so it's hard to tell.
Bill
it is
