This 90-minute, feature-length movie depicts the dramatic sage of The Lost Squadron. During World War II, a flight of P-38 Lightnings and B-17 Flying Fortresses en route to the European Theatre of Operations; crash landed on a Greenland glacier. This is a tale of tragedy, survival and ultimate renewal as the Lost Squadron pilots face the frozen wasteland to survive and fight another day while their aircraft are left behind to be entombed under tons of snow and ice. This is a drama of discovery as the lost aircraft are finally found after being buried 250-feet deep in that glacier for over five decades. It is a story of renewal as one P-38 is retrieved from the ice and fully restored. This year, the valiant rescue of that lost P-38 Lightning from its icy tomb came to fruition as Glacier Girl flew into Lakeland, Florida. See the report from Sun N' Fun Day 1 below to watch Glacier Girl in action.<<<
