Title: S.A.P.P. secret junk yard.
Post by: black on January 20, 2015, 03:08:22 PM
Oaktree has found S.A.P.P. secret spot where they take their damage P-38. Sigh, sigh.

Those are far too intact to have been used by SAPP. That must be where they get their planes from before they fly them.  :devil

Looks like the end of a runway where one lone con spawned at an overly vulched base

Corky sure goes through a lot of planes in the course of a single night.

I completely agree.  All those beautiful aircraft, loved by the men who flew them, the men who maintained them, and the men and women who built them.  The history, sacrifice and the bravery imbued within the metal and then just tossed aside like a hamburger wrapper.  It really makes me want to cry.

That's obviously an airfield that the jokers just captured and they all landed gear up.

Gots to put all the ruined planes somewhere.

"Geronimo" was the last thing we overheard on Bish channel before they  attacked the undefended Rook field.

Just looking at surplus P-38 prices  in 1945 ... for a low hour fully fueled, ready to fly away P-38.... the sale price was $1250 dollars .  About $16,350 dollars today .  A P-51 in the same condition went for between 3000- and 3500 dollars so roughly $39,000 - $46,000 dollars today .  I couldve bought a P-38 for what I paid for my first car .... payment was like $350 a month    :cry
