This scoop is a real mistery. It will be great to have a documentation of P-38-H-1 with clear indication: new scoop or old scoop. But i'm asking too much...
Yet another question. Does anyone know what are crew's members first names painted on that Edward Cragg's aircraft?
I'm refering to the scoop under wing. Compare my picture and Yours. Glacier Girl is P-38F with old type intake. Porky 2 is undoubtly P-38H-1 with old type B-13 supercharger/turbosupercharger, but when You take a closer look intake looks like new version, installed on P-38H-5, P-38J and so on...
Hi,
I have a problem with Maj. Edward Cragg P-38H.
It's very possible that aircraft at this photo is P-38H-1. Number partly obscured by "A" letter ends with "7". That points to factory number 42-66506 (undoubtly P-38H-1).
Now comes the wierd part. As You can see at attached picture...
