Title: P-38 White Lightning
Post by: Josh on January 10, 2008, 12:23:47 PM
Some may be interested in seeing how the restoration is going, so heres a link to the site. http://www.ezellaviation.com/p38.htm

For those who don't know, White Lightning was sold to Red Bull, and will/does have a new paint scheme. I think changing the scheme was a big mistake, but at least it will be flying again.

Another thing I read was not to expect to see it flying around the US much, if at all anymore, it will be doing most of it's flying in Europe, and only in basic demo flights and doing mostly static, also disappointing.
