John,

I saw your post on the same subject after I sent mine. Sorry for the
duplication, but at least yours did make it to my newsreader at least. My
late father (http://users.erols.com/viewptmd/Dad.html) flew the P-38, among
many other aircraft, and we still have his "Flight Manual" for it (and one
for the P-40, and the B-25). I remember reading warnings about
"compressability" in the manual when I was younger, and wondering what that
was all about. My brother in Columbus has the manuals now, so I can't refer
to it.

Your right

I posted a follow on to thread covering essentially what you said and
it never made it? I have had several disappeared like that and need to
find out what is happening. I thought at first someone was going in
and deleting my posts but I normally don't get into a Peeing contest
with most posters and need to be censored ).

In any event, glad you posted so some of the young ones will know what
happened a long time ago in a land far away )
