From Dave - Warbird Beer Show: We got some requests to see the XP-38K. Here is a grainy black and white photo. Looks like a P-38 to me. I bet those twin Rolls Royce Merlins sounded awesome!

The guys at The Warbird Beer Show on Flight Line Radio were talking about the plane above the other day on their show. Dave, at Warbird Beer, was nice enough to post the picture on his website so we could see what he was talking about.

Thanks Dave!
