Lockheed P-38J-10-LO Lightning. Nose wheel detail.
National Air and Space Museum, Udvar-Hazy Center, Dulles, Va. October 29, 2009.
According to the museum's website:
Maj. Richard I. Bong, America's leading fighter ace, flew this P-38J-10-LO on April 16, 1945, at Wright Field, Ohio, to evaluate an experimental method of interconnecting the movement of the throttle and propeller control levers. However, his right engine exploded in flight before he could conduct the experiment.
Museum records show that Lockheed assigned the construction number 422-2273 to the National Air and Space Museum's P-38. The Army Air Forces accepted this Lightning as a P-38J-l0-LO on November 6, 1943, and the service identified the airplane with the serial number 42-67762. Recent investigations conducted by a team of specialists at the Paul E. Garber Facility, and Herb Brownstein, a volunteer in the Aeronautics Division at the National Air and Space Museum, have revealed many hitherto unknown aspects to the history of this aircraft.
Brownstein examined NASM files and documents at the National Archives. He discovered that a few days after the Army Air Forces (AAF) accepted this airplane, the Engineering Division at Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio, granted Lockheed permission to convert this P-38 into a two-seat trainer. The firm added a seat behind the pilot to accommodate an instructor who would train civilian pilots in instrument flying techniques. Once trained, these test pilots evaluated new Lightnings fresh off the assembly line.
In a teletype sent by the Engineering Division on March 2, 1944, Brownstein also discovered that this P-38 was released to Colonel Benjamin S. Kelsey from March 3 to April 10, 1944, to conduct special tests. This action was confirmed the following day in a cable from the War Department. This same pilot, then a Lieutenant, flew the XP-38 across the United States in 1939 and survived the crash that destroyed this Lightning at Mitchel Field, New York. In early 1944, Kelsey was assigned to the Eighth Air Force in England and he apparently traveled to the Lockheed factory at Burbank to pick up the P-38. Further information about these tests and Kelsey's involvement remain an intriguing question.
One of Brownstein's most important discoveries was a small file rich with information about the NASM Lightning. This file contained a cryptic reference to a "Major Bong" who flew the NASM P-38 on April 16, 1945, at Wright Field. Bong had planned to fly for an hour to evaluate an experimental method of interconnecting the movement of the throttle and propeller control levers. His flight ended after twenty-minutes when "the right engine blew up before I had a chance [to conduct the test]." The curator at the Richard I. Bong Heritage Center confirmed that America's highest scoring ace made this flight in the NASM P-38 Lightning.
Working in Building 10 at the Paul E. Garber Facility, Rob Mawhinney, Dave Wilson, Wil Lee, Bob Weihrauch, Jim Purton, and Heather Hutton spent several months during the spring and summer of 2001 carefully disassembling, inspecting, and cleaning the NASM Lightning. They found every hardware modification consistent with a model J-25 airplane, not the model J-10 painted in the data block beneath the artifact's left nose. This fact dovetails perfectly with knowledge uncovered by Brownstein. On April 10, the Engineering Division again cabled Lockheed asking the company to prepare 42-67762 for transfer to Wright Field "in standard configuration." The standard P-38 configuration at that time was the P-38J-25. The work took several weeks and the fighter does not appear on Wright Field records until May 15, 1944. On June 9, the Flight Test Section at Wright Field released the fighter for flight trials aimed at collecting pilot comments on how the airplane handled.

Always ask for and retain a 'Reference Number'. Your issue could be resolved!
Even though this is not the ward that I am standing in, I am well aware of how much the wards of Canton and Riverside interconnect. Hence this simple action.
Date:12/10/11.
First I phoned Canton Community Centre.
Natalie Bunce tel- 02920872087, to see if they would like me to phone the council on their behalf about the removal of the graffiti outside the Community Centre. As it sends out the wrong message to all the youths that use it. Natalie had said, that she had not particularly noticed it.
Although recently a member of the public had reported it.
Because it had been there for approximately 2 years people simply didn't notice it any more.
After drawing her attention to it, her response was yes please, and that they would appreciate it.
I then called Cardiff County Council Tel: 02920872087. It was then reported to the Graffiti Officer and I was assured it would be removed in 5 working days. Call Ref: pug 588 764360.
I then reported my progress back to Natalie and gave her the Council telephone number so that she could re-enforce the request.
So roughly after approximately 2 years of being there it should be gone by the 20/10/11.

A campaign to remove visual litter (graffiti and tags) from our streets.

The trouble with tagging and graffiti is it's like over-littered areas and readily gets added to.
"It's there already, so it doesn't matter if I do it!"
We've become so used to seeing it that we stop acknowledging it's presence and start perceiving it as normal and acceptable.
Visual litter will remain as a recurrent and accumulative issue on our streets if it's not removed as quickly as possible by councils, private businesses or the willing community.
It will remain a cyclic issue, perpetuating the degradation of the quality of our community's environment.
Councilors often like to gain political favor by the removal of graffiti, time and time again, without ever addressing the preventative measures of education.
Quote: "The council’s policy is to remove racist and offensive graffiti within
24 hours of it being reported".
Ref: www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/2010/10/06/graffiti...
This will remain a cyclic issue, perpetuating the degradation of the quality of our community's environment if these preventative measures are not put in place!
The Canton Green Party suggests running relevant mentor led projects within our schools and communities.
Organizations like: "Peaceful Progress" a Cardiff based Graffiti Arts Group

Or CRUELVAPOURS
Who are a professional aerosol art company based in Cardiff.
Teaching in schools and youth centres across south wales as well as producing high quality murals for private and commercial clients.
They are currently on the outlook for public problem walls, especially graffiti vandalism or fly-postering.
So far they have tackled a few problem areas in Roath where fly posters and graffiti was a problem, since they have created their artwork on the walls, all vandalism has stopped.
Their service is free of charge as long as the wall is situated in a high visibility area and that their artists have artistic license over the content of the mural.
Please check out their work via their photo stream on flickr or visit their websites:
Organizations such as this and others, could, would and do instill
"A right time, right place ethos".
Please Send photos of "Syx 10" or "Syks" from around Cardiff.
Please email any information and photos to nige@nigelpugh.co.uk (jpegs med size)
I will collate them and present them to the Cardiff City Council with the view to the removal of, and the stemming of the continual visual littering of our communities.
Mentor systems will always have longer term solutions. And lets stem this recurrent issue, of which Councilors love to gain favor with.
NB: The Canton Green Party in no way advocates "tagging or graffiti" without the permission of public or private property owners.
