Meticulously restored P51-C painted in the "Red Tail" scheme of the Tuskegee Airmen.

Bless the pilot for his courage. I hope the plane can be restored.

Famous test pilot and P-51 aerial acrobat, Bob Hoover, told me the Mustang is a dangerous airplane to fly. America lost a lot of pilots just training young men to fly it in World War II. My own flight instructor, who got me through my solo, was killed on take-off in a restored P-51. He had previously said it was a dangerous airplane. The airplane requires expert skill and is completely unforgiving.

One of the Air Force Thunderbirds also had to cut it short at Moffett Field's Air Show.

I'll be posting photos later.

he pilot chose to maintain control of the airplane all the way to impact by flying under the wires rather than hitting the wires and becoming uncontrollable and risking the loss of life to other people," Barzen said. "What this individual did in my mind is heroic. He knew he could avoid the houses if he flew into the ground."

I take it that "the Minnesota wing of the Commemorative Air Force" used to be the Confed***te Air Force.

I miss the bad old days.

Hope the pilotm [not named?] comes out well.
