Yeah, but the p51 looks better.    Though the ashtray and the cupholder in the p38 are modelled better IMO.  P51 ashtray and cupholder snap off unexpectedly at 8Gs regardless of speed, dumping hot ashes and coffee all over the pilot.  
P38 also has that bottle of "Hellfire" to the right of the seat.

Oh; I dunno. That Bosh cd player you guys get rocks. At least you guys get to listen to "Flight of the Valkeries" in surround sound while doin yer thing.

All we get is Tokyo Rose on the Weather Channel; and The 8:00 traffic report. Of course; Howard Stern on the return leg is interesting...

It has an extra engine and its supposed to be one of the fastest (yet to be seen here) of WW2.

Dunno, guess I just love twin engined fighters
