Goodbye White Lightnin'

There are 6 P-38 Lightnings that are still airworthy. One of them is about to leave the US. The P-38 Flying Bull (formerly known as White Lightnin') has undergone a complete restoration in a tiny hanger at Ezell Aviation in Breckenridge, Texas. They did a fabulous job!

The Flying Bull will take center stage in a solid glass hanger at the new Red Bull Flying Museum in Salzburg, Austria. It's sad to see this rare warbird leave the US, but it will get a new life with lots of flight time ahead.

Full story in The Startlegram including a video link.
