| Réjean Olivier Bury,, QC | Good evening. I am 50 years old and I worked on aircrafts for about 20 years. Of course, when I was a kid I enjoyed the movies with aircrafts. Is it possible that the P-38 was the aircraft flown by Col. Von Ryan in the movie: The Von Ryan Express with Frank Sinatra . This movie came out in l965. It is such a nice aircraft. Thanks. Best regards
