Relatively speaking, if it we're a P-38 or a Corsair... she'd be a great starting point for a restoration project! Static or flyable! Lets hope she either gets refurbished where she is, or is removed and brought someplace to where she'll get the attention she deserves.

The Stars & Bars insignia are the wrong color. :wink:

Stars and Bars are faded.

Yes. Look at old deralic planes in a harsh climate, every thing has color shifted a bit -- especially if they are decals. I would imagine they have been subjected to a lot of blowing dust and sand.

It needs to be in my back pasture. I'd get a new canopy and some TLC...
