    Love to see VZ345 rebuilt saw it at Brough as a source of spares for VR930, perhaps there is a straight rear fuselage in Iraq or elsewhere who knows.

    As for the engine there is the bloke doing TFCs ” long term ” perhaps he could have a dabble one day. 😀

    No outer wings on the truck but the fuselage looked like it was getting there, engine was installed prop on cowlings fitted exhaust stubs on, who ever said it would be at legends was on something pretty good i guess. 😀

    Perhaps there have been recent C15 finds thats long nose cased
    Allisons by the way, Kermitt i am sure would also have some i would guess there are a few P40B/Cs in the States under- restoration not all coming out of Russia by the way,if TFC have another P40B/C thats excellent news we will have to wait and see.

    Like most people on this forum i am very dissapointed but not suprised the P38 will not grace these shores, we will have to all remember the good old days when TFCs P38 was the most popular a/c in the collection, in fact the star of the fleet.

    Without Mr Greys restrictions on weight of type we may well of seen a new P38, our loss is somebody elses gain for sure, but i am sure he will not let this case hold him back we have a P39 to look forward to.

    They pushed their luck first time round i think they should leave it at that, because at the end of the day how much of the original is in GLACIER GIRL?.

    Now with Paul Allen and under restoration in the UK, i think quite a few people have had a go at restoring the 190 but its in very capable hands now and will be done to factory finish standards.
