White 33, the P-38 with the best war record of any P-38 currently flying, will be on display and is scheduled to fly on Monday, October 17th (weather permitting). Frank Royal who was a squadron commander over White 33 will also be in attendance.
As many of you know, White 33 underwent a full restoration at Westpac Restorations after being recovered from Papua New Guinea where she was buried after the war. She's currently one of 10 airworthy P-38's in the world! (and we believe only one of two with functioning turbochargers!)
