    @Dixieman I was talking to Insertname. His Lightning was the one that was too big. Yours is pretty close to 1:1, and you did a decent job putting everything where it belongs.

    @Sunnyskies what do you find to be too big I tried to keep it to scale?

    How do I enter it into the WWII contest, and does anyone know how to adjust the numerical increments for fuselages on an iPad?

    @Insertname Nonsense. Despite being too large, its a pretty good replica. It will earn high marks on my list.

    Pretty close.
    Good job.

    I'm going to have to put together a comprehensive list of all the P-38s posted to this site though. There are too many,
