Wow Dean. I didn't realize that you were old enough to fight in WWII.:110:


Neat story and pics

Holy Katz. what a site!

In a quick read, one item really caught my eye. A "highly modified" P-39 was not just competitive, but could win. I'll BET it was modified. While the P-39 was a most interesting aircraft, it was WAY down the pecking order for speed and agility as produced.

Thanks Dean.
