In honor of my visit later this week to Lockheed Martin's F-35/F-16 factory in Fort Worth, I am showing one of the coolest videos I've seen in a while. It's a training film from 1943 on the P-38's flight characteristics. I think I enjoyed watching this one more than even the spectacular Saab Draken promotional video from the early 1950s, which I posted here earlier. This one is pure 1940s-infomercial goodness.
