the warbird community has lost a great man. for those who don’t know. gerry beck ,fabricates nearly complete p-51’s from scratch. using some original parts, so its a restoration NOT a replica.he frabricated the A model from paterns he made from the C model he restored for the CAF. see-www.redtail.org. from the video it looks like the d model got slow and he was fast. i knew gerry personally and there wasn,t a safer more carefull warbird driver.

I also knew this pilot personally, and what happened, was the Will of God.

Last September, I was also in an airplane crash which crushed my spine. It took me months before I could even walk again. Last May, I was able to fly once again, and even I was amazed.

What did I do wrong that caused that crash? After almost a year, I still have no idea of what I could have done to prevent that crash.

Sometimes, God is simply teaching you a lesson.
