I was told that every time a P-51 leaves service the value of the remaining one's goes up.

I knew both the pilots in this incident, and I don't think the VALUE of their aircraft was on anyone's mind at the time.

Blue skies, Gerry. You will be missed.

I wasn’t trying to be unsympathetic a_d. Just making a comment.

Sorry for the loss you are feeling with the death of your friend.

Of course not ad, however both pilots passed while doing something they loved to do and the venerable Mustang was part of it.

trussell meant no disrespect I'm sure and posted only to honor the passing of the demised pilot.

Cut some slack for the poster my FRiend.

Trussell, thank you for the information from the air show.

Condolences for the loss of your Warbird friend.

They serve a noble cause keeping valuable memories alive.

One article said they clipped wings on landing.
