Hey Gary, look at those flaps!
Can't make out the S/N.
Is that an -H since it has the big drops?
I can't remember when they added the big Drop tanks.
Cool photo.

Hey, I think we have one of those flaps laying around out here. I'll have to go take another look now, thanks. :)

At least it is an F to an H model... the F had Maneuver Flaps and the H did not have the three hole intakes (one for the intercooler)... the drop tanks look like the 165 gal models

By the way... the P-38 was flown by the Army... and the Army turned Left and Right... who cares what the Naahhvee calls it<g>

I just dropped in to put down some tarps as I am sure Mudge will be by any minute to drool over that shot.... :lol:

Can't blame him, man what a magnificent aircraft!
