Hi all, and I write now from the snowy streets of Philadelphia 
I justwish this city could understand snow like Maine
Tiger, could you please if you would talk about your father's hours in the Burlin Airlift. 800 would have been two rips a day or so. Was he flying for the whole operation?

It would look great if it didn't have the large radar sticking out the nose, must of produced a hell of a lot of drag

CC, that is the prototype for the P-38M. It was basically just intended to prove the feasibility of the concept and so didn't have all of the "finishing touches" the combat models would.
The drag from the radar pod wasn't as bad as you would think. The P-38M could make 406mph @ 15,000ft which isn't too far behind a P-38L at the same alititude.

Have you just stated that the Beau was superior to the Me-262B-1a (Is that the right designation for the NF-262, Erich?)?
The Mosquito was the best, by combat record, Night-Fighter of the war. The Me-262 was, most likely, the best by ability. The Mosquito could still fight up there.

Hadn't seen the Me262, note to self: read previous posts.
The Blenheim, Defiant and Beaufighter were the only aircraft ready for the blitz though. Out of those I'd take the Beau

A lousy warplane, but a good pic. Thanks, plan_D.
