Default US 1944-27231 F-5G 2007 to N79123 1.jpg

rr-27231 was a P-38L convverted to a F-5G, It left AAF service as a
F-5G and was restored in Civil hands as a P-38L. Therefor I was
correct. It was a F-5G and always therefor will be a F-5G no matter
what a restoration converts it to.

That is the first F-5G I have seen with guns.
I believe that "Ruff Stuff" is a P-38L.


My mistake, it is actually a P38G-15-LO.


On the other hand, "Honey Bunny" is a P-38L-5-LO.

So the U.S. ARMY P-38G-15-LO and AF SER# 43-2212 that is currently
painted on it is fake?

Yes, many restorations fly with false ID's.
