of what I saw today on the Wings & Wheels show on Münster Greven Airport:
WOW! That 38 is sexy Bet they get an extra 5 knot’s out of the hi polish.
Thanks for the pics Hiaw.
Nice Hiaw!
Those were some nice pics, Haw, especially the 38.
I have always loved the P-38 for it’s special design.
A small quizz my friends
What model are our beloved old P-38?
I can give you a small hint. Look at the radiators
Thx for your words guys!
Looking to the engine nacelles this P38 seems to be an E,H or F version.
When you search the net a bit about this special A/C, you learn, that it is the former “White Lightning” and a former Reno racer. I found a tech info saying it was an L version. But the engine nacelle tells something different. Maybe its originally an L version that was modified to look like a F?
Hiawatha won a beer for the answer
I have to confess that I did not do any research on this specific plane.
If it was born an ‘L’ it certainly have been altered. But the mod is quite close to an original, all though earlier design. But well done.
