A shot from the local air museum. Although you can tell what the whole plane looks like from this angle, if you look at the drawing just under the left prop, you can see an artist's rendition of the plane. Madras, Oregon, USA.

As a WWII scholar, Ted, I have a real fascination and appreciation of this plane, The Lockheed P38F Lightning. A fighter, designed in 1942, the Lightning had a range of 1,425 miles, a maximum speed of 395 mph, and could climb to 39,000 feet. It could carry 2,000 pounds of bombs and fired a 20mm cannon and 4 machine guns which, in the case of this particular Lightning, Lt. E.C. Ethell used to shoot down five nazi planes.
