Nicknamed the 'Flying Razor' by Royal Flying Corps pilots at the end of WWI this superb fighter arrived just too late to have any effect on the course of the war. This replica was built by E Swearingen in the 1960s with input from the original designer Rheinhold Pfalz and now hangs proudly in the Museum of Flight.

Decommisioned from Port Angeles CG Station and photographed in the Museum of Flight Restoration Center yard. After a few years in the open under rather unforgiving Washington skies she is starting to look a tad faded.

I can hardly put into words what a thrill it is for me, a guy captivated by classic commercial aviation, to visit the Airpark at the wonderful Museum of Flight. This stunning Connie has now taken her place there alongside probably the most famous airliner of all tme, N7470.

This was one of my most frustrating days ever photographing aeroplanes! The Museum of Flight is (rightly) soooo busy that this shot was only possible just before closing during a mad dash around the bigger exhibits to try and get them people free before being chucked out. Nice memories for me though from a fabulous museum!

This aircraft passes her days in retirement outside the Museum of Flight at BFI. Much better than death by a thousand cuts, a fate which will eventually be suffered by many of her contempories at the DM boneyard.

'Wyandotte Mich' on display in the Personal Courage wing of the Museum of Flight at BFI. This was one of the very last P-38s to be produced. She was subsequently delivered to the USAAF (serial 44-53097) as a two-seat night-fighter M-version and only later converted to single seat configuration..
