    P-39 Missing in action, rediscovered and returned home to the plant, where it was made for restoration.

    In light of the above interesting narration, Im willing to overlook the fact, that the P-39 was not universially loved.

    Yes, very interesting also about the pencil writing in the plane from the hands of the girls, who made the plane.

    As legible as the day they wrote it. Very poignant.
