Country:  | But the Ratio...  I know youre technically correct, but I never think of the P-38 as a twin tail plane, but a twin boom plane.

Country: | Which aircraft have twin-boom and one tail? I'm not saying they don't exist, I just can't think of any.

Country: | What would be the point in twin-boom and single tail? Sure, it's not impossible but it's pointless. I thought you might have had at least some aircraft in the list but no, again I thought too highly of you. You got my hopes up there, lanc and then crushed them. 
So, the P-38 is twin-boom since there isn't a twin-boom, single tailed aircraft anywhere.

Country: | Really, does it? F*ckin' hell, I never realised that. You tit!!! My point was there isn't a ****in' twin boom, single tailed aircraft out there so there's no point in saying "twin-boom, twin-tail".

Country: | 'ang on, so you're arguing that it's pointless calling it a twin boom- twin tail, when you're the only one that's called it that??
