Default Re: Interesting Warbird documentary

My father was stationed at Hamilton field in Santa Rosa, California during the war and he used to talk about the P-38s stationed there, most ened up crashing due to high speed dives. They ended up putting dive brakes on them to stop the problem. They also had a jap Zero there that was found in the Aluetions, he said they would dog fight that plane against American planes continually.
