Amazing pieces of history. Thanks for posting.
FYI, If anyone is ever in the Dayton Ohio area (45 min north of Cincinnati) go to the National Museum of the United States Air Force. Among many others..It's packed with planes like the ones above.

[quote=Mark O]I've always liked WWII aircraft.
Cool pics I have two jumps out of the top B-17 in the pic "Nine O Nine". The Collings foundation brings it and the B-24 up to Rantoul, IL every year for the World Freefall Convention so we can make skydives out of it.

Chuck, I watched a show on the p38 and it was said that there are less than 5 still flying in the world. Cool planes, but only around 10000 were built. Nicknamed the fork-tailed devil by the Germans.
Unless you are talking about the p38 c-ration can opener, than I can help you out.
