Lockheed P-38 "Lightning":
One of the last things Yammamoto ever saw ... The National Socialists weren't too fond of it, either.

Thank God this BS is history.

P.S. The most famous pilot of a P-38 was a Frenchman: Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

Whatr a beautiful machine. It would be one of the great pleasures of a lifetime to be at the controls during flight.
