Red Bull Air Race Pilot Nigel Lamb is travelling 10,500 miles to visit the Temora Aviation Museum, Australia and take the opportunity to display one or both of the museums Mk XVI and MkVIII Spitfires on 28th & 29th November.
Nigel Lamb comments; 'I am excited to be participating in the next flying day.

P-38 Lightning - AF.mil Top Stories
The Lockheed P-38 Lightning was designed in 1937 as a high-altitude interceptor. The first one built, the XP-38, made its public debut on Feb. 11, 1939 by flying from California to New York in seven hours. Because of its unorthodox design, the aircraft evolved for several years before becoming the fighter destined to see combat in all theaters of World War II. The P-38 Lightning introduced a new dimension to American fighters, a second engine. The multi-engine configuration reduced the Lightning loss-rate to anti-aircraft gunfire during ground attack missions.
