Are these both recoveries from PNG???
P-38 is from PNG. I think the P-39 is from Cape York (far northern Queensland). Both USAAF.

Its a pleasure to see these more “exotic” aircraft restored statically for museums, because more often than not they get bought up as flying re-builds, where they often languish in the back of a hangar awaiting attention out of sight, or are kept in private flying collections.
A lot of these “exotic” types are therefore notably absent from museums.

A shame she is static but at least they will be able to use alot of original parts rather than replace them with modern ones to fly?

Is this static or airworthy?
It’s static. Looks nice, I believe they have also completed a good job on the static USAAF P-38.
