Thank you for posting this. This was one of the best documentaries I’ve seen. A good program to watch. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8f24a15b22.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5a3afed19a.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Some of it has superb scenes about a grown kid just flying his Nakajima Ki-43. The film is still 1940s though... Slow and boring by today's standards. I saw it once with subtitles somewhere. Not sure if available still. |
P-38! I stumbled into this place several years ago. It sits just off the highway on the middle of very rural MN. Saw the top half of a P-51 prop sticking up above the horizon and had to stop The guy behind it got in on the ground floor of building ethanol plants.
http://www.fagenfighterswwiimuseum.org/aircraft/aircraft.html Mr Fagan was sitting in the cockpit of the P40K fuselage undergoing nut and bolt restoration talking to another guy when I knocked on the shop's door and asked to look around. I'm a nobody to him and it was Sunday. He was very tolerant of me and the place appears to have only gotten more remarkable! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1522111973.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1522112023.jpg |

I've watched other P-38 videos on Youtube where they got into the variants, politics of the failed British order and redeployment into Asia where the range was a factor, but the video link I posted yesterday was both technically and at a personal level superior - just more involving.
I do notice that all the old pilots in the videos I've watched said their fighter aircraft was the best and most beautiful, well almost. The beauty award goes to the Spitfire in my opinion. https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/classic-cars/news/a24698/1990-sky-commuter-flying-car-up-for-auction-at-barrett-jackson/ http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1522156606.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1522156606.jpg BMWs That Will Be Missed: BMW New Class Coupe https://www.autoevolution.com/news/bmws-that-will-be-missed-bmw-new-class-coupe-56036.html https://s1.cdn.autoevolution.com/ima...pe-56036-7.jpg Quote:

He told the story that p-38's were training nearby... at times they would see each other in the sky and have impromptu dog fights. |
