Cool.

Is it a real P-38, the site is lame and if they have info on the planes I can not find it.

That somehow seems better then real to me.

I would rather see real ones in real museums and in the air hehe.


Still its a cool idea. I may even eat there if I get around to going down.


Not a must go now though.

I know this thread is a year old, but I didn't really want to start another new one. Anyhow, I thought this was cool:

Here are three Oscar SSGNs and one SSN that I can't ID (Probably an Akula, maybe late Victor).

On the upper right here is one of my favorite planes, the Be-12. On the Upper left is the IL-38 (another ASW platform, similiar in appearance to the US P-3) centered at the bottom is an An-12 and two Mig Interceptors (25s or 31s, I can't tell the difference).
