WTF is a P38

G'day

Actually the P38 was the Lockheed P38 Lightning.

It featured two Alison V12 engines and was one of the fastest and highest flying fighters of WWII.

I prefer its British cousin, the Mosquito though. It had two supercharged Rolls Royce Merlin V12s and was even more versatile. And the sound!!!!! Just the engines for a Range Rover.

I am sure I read somewhere, maybe in a LROI mag recently that the P38 was actually the part number for a Defender Axle, now what the heck that has to do with a RR, who knows? I also think that P38 is the part number for the combination can opener/spoon that is issued in Army Ration packs in the Oz defence force!!
Useless info really.

I've not seen many of those with winches and snorkelled. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

Definitely tweed jacket and polo. :roll:

Maybe there are enough of them around after a civilised life to be taken from the pasture and shown some country. :wink:

Any reason why not?
