When the military flew P-51s, was it common to do a formation landing? Takes offs, sure, but landings? I've also read that the A model is very difficult to see out of. I would think that is especially true during landing.
Prayers to Gerry Beck's family and friends. He was an irreplaceable, driving force in the warbird community.
