for those who might be interested. Check this site out. Mid-Atlantic Air Museum......They have a awsome WWII weekend (go every year) and have a P61 Black Widow they are restoring....will be 1 of 4 in the world but the only one that will fly.

That is amazing. It almost seems like it would have been easier to build one from scratch.

My dad flew P61s during WWII. He had been in a US Army Beaufighter unit in the Med, but came back to the US to train flight crews in late 44. In 45 he was assigned to a P61 sqdn but was never deployed outside CONUS again until Korea. It seems somebody had gone and dropped a couple of big ol'e bombs on Japan....

I've never seen a real P61 at a museum anywhere. Anybody know if any are out there?
