Production. Lockheed P-38 pursuit planes. New Lockheed P-38 pursuit ships that have successfully passed inspection for routine test flights are transferred to the Lockheed air terminal. Here flight mechanics take over and prepare them for the flight test. These ships have performed beautifully in action, notably in the Aleutians. They are excellent high-altitude fighters and rank among the world's fastest combat aircraft. Their long-range and great firepower give promise of their value as escorts for high- altitude bombers

Planes in flight. The P-40 single-engine fighter plane--which the British have used in its various models as the "Tomahawk," "Kittyhawk" and "Warhawk"--is a fast pursuit ship in the 400-mile-per-hour class. It has an approximate service ceiling of 30,000 feet and a range of about 900 miles. Carrying various combinations of light and heavy caliber guns, it has performed notably with the RAF (Royal Air Force) in England and Africa, with the AVG (American Volunteer Group--Flying Tigers) in China and. with the AAF (Army Air Forces) in the South Pacific

Fighting Filipino pilot. Manila. Captain Jesus Villamor, commanding officer of the 6th Pursuit Squadron, Philippine Army Air Corps, is pictured getting out of plane after returning from a flight to Batangas Field. The youth, who leads a daredevil squadron of six Filipino pilots in erstwhile training planes who took on fifty-four Japanese air raiders over Batangas and shot down two, said he "got so mad" he forgot to be scared. One of the Filipino pilots was wounded and parachuted to safety and another was killed, Captain Villamor said, when seven Japanese planes "rode him down." He is the son of the late associate justice of the Philippine Supreme Court and trained as a pilot at Randolph and Kelly Fields

Production. Lockheed P-38 pursuit planes. A Lockheed P-38 pursuit ship, just returned from flight tests, is checked and reconditioned in the test hangar of a large Western aircraft plant. After these operations, the ship will be ready for delivery to the Army. The P-38 has performed brilliantly in action, notably in the Aleutians. Its long range and great firepower give it real promise as an escort for high-altitude bombers. At its best altitude, the P-38 is one of the world's fastest fighting planes
