Six P-38s? If there is a heaven, I'm certain they they have six P-38s, minimum... That would be bleepin awesome. Thanks for the HU.
 
Wow, I guess I was unaware that there were even six flying! I was thinking more like four.
Man, I wish I could see that.
 
I think there are 10 airworthy P-38's in the world today. Having six of them together is quite the feat. Wish I was there to see it.
 
Wish I could get there, since I haven't got any decent pictures of a P-38. Saw the Red Bull Lightning (former White Lightnin' I think ?) last year at an airshow, but the light was crappy and she could only make two (very fast) passes :frown:...
