    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.

    P38

    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.

    Ah...so that is what it looks like. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif[/img]

    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?
