DVD Reviews of Roaring Glory Warbirds, Vol. 6: Lockheed Lightning P-38
DVD Review: P-38 Lightning - The fork-tailed devil!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've always been interested in this great aircraft, originally concieved as a high-altitude interceptor. This plane was very far ahead of its time, thanks to Lockheed's Clarence L. "Kelly" who also designed and built the F-80 Shooting Star, F-94 Starfire, F-104 Starfighter, the U-2 and SR-71 Reconnaissance Aircraft. I've always liked the P-38 because it came from that great Art Deco era of the late 1930's, with a beautifully sleek and unique design that was typical of the period.
The P-38's tough, twin engine design and its nose-mounted multiple gun platform was deadly and highly accurate, and in my opinion made it a more effective weapon than the more glamourous P-51, with a much longer range. Before the P-51's and P-47's reached Europe in quantity, the P-38 was tasked with escorting the heavy bombers on their missions, and it was there the Luftwaffe began calling it "The fork-tailed devil". Tom Lamphier shot down Yamamoto with his P-38, and Richard Bong became the USAAF's top scoring ace in a P-38. The Lighting served in all theatres of the war. I was very happy to learn that one had been recovered from Greenland and restored.
The Roaring Glory Warbirds video gives a marvelous review of the P-38, giving us a peek inside the cockpit, to see how complex this plane was.
With great aerial photography, and some re-creations of actual incidents, I am very happy to have this video in my collection. I'd also like recommend the Roaring Glory Warbirds F6F Hellcat video. Just wish they would do a similar video for the great P-40 Warhawk.
