[ARC5] Soviet-service P-39 Recovery/Restoration

[Mike Morrow]

Here's an interesting story of a P-39 that was discovered in summer 2004 that crashed
in Lake Mart-Yavr, Russia, in 1944.  Last October it came back to the New York factory
in which it was made for restoration.

In the cockpit photo at the bottom of the next web page there's an obvious MN-28
control box for the Bendix MN-26 RDF.  It's hard to tell much else about the
radio installation from this small photo.

The remains of the 22-year-old pilot was still in the aircraft.  In the video you'll see
one of the pilot's medals, "The Order of Glory", found with the remains.
