Today only a tiny number remain airworthy \u2014 restoring one is a multi-million-dollar, multi-year labour, and the type\u2019s complexity makes it one of the hardest warbirds to keep flying. To see three together is the kind of thing that makes collectors book flights months in advance.<\/p>\n<p>One of them is travelling further than most. The Flying Bulls, the Austria-based historic aircraft team, are crossing the Atlantic for their first-ever public appearance in the United States, ferrying a restored P-38 and a DC-6 over Iceland, Newfoundland and Canada to reach Oshkosh. For American fans, it is a chance to see a European-based Lightning they might otherwise never encounter.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=2073509368  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/p-38-lightning-airshow.jpg\" alt=\"P-38 Lightning at an airshow\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Fewer than a handful of P-38s remain airworthy worldwide, which is what makes a gathering of three so remarkable.

Two newly completed P-51 Mustang restorations and a freshly restored Curtiss P-40 Warhawk are expected to make their public debuts \u2014 the first time the crowds will see these particular airframes back in the air. The daily air shows are set to feature P-51 displays from the likes of Vicky Benzing, alongside USAF Heritage Flight formations pairing warbirds with modern fighters.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">A word of caution \u2014 and a reason to go<\/h2>\n<p>Warbird plans are never guaranteed. A maintenance snag or a slipping restoration can pull an aircraft from the roster days before the gates open, and the lineup stays fluid to the last minute. But that uncertainty is exactly why events like this matter: on any given afternoon at Oshkosh, you might witness something that will not happen again for years.<\/p>\n<p>Three P-38s in one Wisconsin sky would be one of them.<\/p>\n<p><em>Sources: EAA; Vintage Aviation News; EAA Warbirds of America; Aero-News Network.<\/em><\/p>\n<!-- mf-faq -->\n\n<div class=\"mf-faq-block\"><style>.mf-faq-block{margin:34px 0}.mf-faq-item:not([open]) .mf-faq-answer{display:none !important}.mf-faq-block h2.mf-faq-h{padding-top:22px;margin-bottom:14px}.mf-faq-item{border:1px solid #e2e8f5;border-radius:8px;margin:0 0 10px;background:#fff}.mf-faq-item summary{list-style:none;cursor:pointer;padding:15px 50px 15px 18px;font-weight:600;color:#1a1a1a;position:relative;line-height:1.45;user-select:none}.mf-faq-item summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mf-faq-item summary::after{content:\"+\";position:absolute;right:18px;top:50%;transform:translateY(-50%);font-size:1.5em;font-weight:400;color:#5C91FF;line-height:1}.mf-faq-item[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mf-faq-item[open] summary{border-bottom:1px solid #eef1f8}.mf-faq-item summary:hover{background:#f5f8ff}.mf-faq-answer{padding:14px 18px;color:#333;line-height:1.6}.mf-faq-answer p{margin:0}<\/style><h2 class=\"mf-faq-h\">Related Questions<\/h2><details class=\"mf-faq-item\"><summary>When is EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2026?<\/summary><div class=\"mf-faq-answer\"><p>EAA AirVenture takes place at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, from 20 to 26 July 2026.
