That picture made my heart soar!

I read the articles and saw the documentary on the recovery mission and often wondered what had ever happened to the plane.

God bless American ingenuity!

P.S.  Check out this website on "Glacier Girl"  http://thelostsquadron.com/

On the site is a video of the first flight (although it would not load when I tried)

It also had the following statement:

"We would like to thank the History Channel for their permission to do this webcast. Be sure to catch their 90 minute special that will detail the P-38 Project from World War II to today! Program is set to air at 9:00PM EST on March 3, 2003 on the History Channel."
