Here's a digital restoration job I did on a pretty lousy print from my collection.

'Tis a rather scarce color view of a rare bird, the P-40D...

Friggin' amazing TT. I have so many comments that I must refrain. I could spend hours looking at what little pics you have posted. This is by far in the top 50 threads ever on this site. Beautiful.

And for those who aren't familiar with DC and the last pic. All of those buildings alongside "The Mall" east (up) from the memorial are no longer there. It is now the reflecting pool, WWII Memorial, Vietnam Memorial and grass for our fellow protester brethren to complain about all who have sacrificed before them.

The burning P-38... What aircraft are in the background? They look like Lightnings sitting on their tails. Any ideas?

Matt They are P-38's getting ready to be scrapped in Germany after the war ended alot of aircraft had to be destroyed as it deamed cheaper and un-necessary to ship them back to the states. The ironic part was that the crews destroying alot of the planes were German ex soldiers orGerman civilians trying to earn money for their families!
