This is a repaint only for David C. Copley's freeware P-38L Lightning. This airplane, owned by Ron Fagen, just finished an extensive rebuild by Fagen's Warhawks Inc. of Granite Falls, Minnesota and became the fourth currently flying P-38 in the world. Making its first air show appearance at EAA Airventure 2007, the aircraft was completed in the markings of Norb Ruff's P-38G "Ruff Stuff". Norb Ruff, a Wisconsin native, completed 50 combat missions in the original "Ruff Stuff" during WWII, based in the south Pacific, operating with the 80th FS, 8th FG, "The Headhunters". This repaint replicates a wide assortment of details, from a full set of factory stencils to inspection stickers on every removable panel, hand painted nose art and more, matching the real example in nearly every way possible.
