Thanks Rob. My Uncle bought a P-38 in the late '60s from a S. American government. He'd flown them in the European Theater during the war and had gone down on a business trip. I can't remember what he paid but knowing him, he skinned that government good. I got to ride in it once as a kid. I fell in love with WW II aircraft. Not sure who has the plane now. He's still kicking at 94.
Wow! A P38 ride would be cool. I figured the Israelis
fought the last pistol engine battles...
