Back in High School I fell in love with this plane...
The P-38 Lightning.

I always thought the twin boom design kicked ass.
I even remember spending a few weeks drawing out plans for a new jet powered version...
I used to know all the major verions & specs on the Supercharged Allison engines of course I was probably seven at the time:)

Looks like one of the main websites for the P-38 is: http://p-38online.com/
I also recently saw a show featuring a short history and an amazing project
to ressurect a P-38 chronicled at http://www.thelostsquadron.com/

Recently I happened to catch a Documentary on Public

Somoene else in the lego community digs them too... check THIS out.
