Re: About a P-38 F-5 to identify ...
Philippe:
I am no P-38/F-5 expert but the partial s/n on the cowling might suggest 023, 025 or 029. the only Accident Report that might possibly fit this would be 43-29025 on 5 August 1944. The incident was a CBL 3 with Robert C Floyd of the 27th PRS at Mount Farm. the 3 code, on a scale of 1-5, meant the aircraft would more than likely have been repaired and flown again. Hope this helps a bit. Ted51
