Guppy, this is probably out of context but...
When did the P-38 gain twin generators (rather than just the single one in the left engine in early Lightnings)? The J-5 model?

Your asking the SAPP about help with pulling OUT of a dive? SAPP are ment to be the masters of destroying the P38, not recovering them!
