P-51's

[Guyzerr]

These are the main reason I went and it made the entire day worthwhile. I'm thinking some of these are the best aircraft shots I have in my vault and to see them printed is something else. They are so sharp it would make your eyes bleed. :thumbup ( I've taken some of that away due to folks that like to save 'em )

Anywhoo the one with the red paint is a 1945 North American P-51D ( my personal favorite ). If you look close you'll notice the bubble canopy. The black & white is a 1943 North American P-51-B. Notice the razorback behind the canopy. The P-47 just happened to be tagging along.

These guy's weren't wasting any time either.....

Do you mean the one in the bottom right corner that isn't flying? It's a AT-6 aka " Harvard " in Canada and " T-6 Texan " in the USA. It was used as an advanced trainer , hence the AT designation. From that aircraft the pilots went to higher performing stuff. I've posted shots of them before but in case you missed 'em here's one I took in 2007 doing a high speed pass.

P-51's have always been my favorite warbird and that will never change. I'm glad you liked my shots. Thanks a lot.
