Very special P-38 Lightnings (pirate and related)

[Tophe]

Thanks!
"Surprisingly" the monoplane was the fastest one, like if wings would be dragging parts rather than a trophy for glory...

The bi-plane is a very good looker.

Thanks for this opinion, that surprises me a little: for my P-38 website, I had no room enough for presenting the three (mono/bi/tri-planes) together, so I kept only two: the most crazy (triplane), the most like actual P-38 (monoplane), I thought the biplane was not much interesting. Thanks to deny this positively!

Of course they are not "true killing pirats", they are just actors for Hollywood, with tomato ketchup instead of blood

After the pirate flag seen from above then from front, here is the third dimension: from side/profile. This is more for logic than for aesthetics. The skull here is the fin with eyes as decoration. Crazy? Yes, thanks!
