John W. Myers at the Smithsonian in 2006 with a P-61 Black Widow fighter and a figure of himself as a younger man.

“My objective was to make this lethal weapon the easiest to fly, most forgiving airplane in history so that those kids who were going to fly it on a black night would have every comfort, every aid, we could give them.”

Great story...

Thanks for posting this, Bern. I wonder if the MAAM will ever get their P-61 restored?
