Ummm yup, another pile of corroded aluminum that will be 100% replaced
by hand made new parts at a cost of 2.5x 10e6, then declared to be a
'restoration' and worshipped by the EAA... yawn


It's a P-38. If it's restored to -any- condition I'd have a hard time
yawning about it.

( This photo was taken while filming a P-38 documentary with Jeff Ethell. I
can't say for certain, but I'm nearly positive this is the photo he snapped
with my old 35mm. http://www.damnnearwiley.com/p38.jpg)
