"Gabelschwanzteufel" is coming soon. Wishing you a Happy New Year!

We have just finished building this aircraft. I have just finished painting this paint scheme based on UncleTgt's template. UncleTgt still needs to tune the airfile and tests it in a mission. There are still a lot of work left.

UncleTgt is busy painting a whole bunch of (>>10) new paint schemes. He will post some his favorite soon.

This looks like it will replace the BR2 P-38J that I have.

Any thoughts as to include the P-38L?
Thanks for all the nice comments.

There is a P-38L with animated dive speed brakes. UncleTgt is currently painting the L series.

I am painting a new paint scheme, it is not for intended the P-38L.

UncleTgt is fullfilling your wish, he is painting it now.

I just watched this documentary in Youtube:

This movie shows that the P-38 has a different cockpit.

It looks like I need to rebuild the VC cockpit. I had originally built it based on this photo (fktzfsvvsxyb1.jpg). The cockpit in the AAF Manual 51-127-1 is shown in image2.jpg.
