I would be remiss in not providing some pix for the Brits. Heres the Hurricane. It doesnt look as glamorous as the Spit, but it does look business like.

While I like both the Spit and the Hurricane, I like the Hurricane a bit more.

The P38 is my favorite plane.

The final pix is the P38 going into a low altitude roll........... I only got one pix as I had to watch it....... as with everyone in the airshow, we collectively had to reassure each other what we had seen was true. No, even though this is California, we did not sing Kumbay-ya and hug each other.

Notice that the P39 has a 4 bladed prop. Also, the pilot sits ahead of the wing. Visibility must be really good.

interesting as I am not much up on the P-39, the US 354th fg as they were forming up here in Oregon used the P-39 with the three blade prop. Was 4 blade a later standard fit ??
