  2. In 1992 they had 12 P-51's at Bowman field in Louisville Ky. do a "squadron start up". I was 40 feet from the flight line. THE WHOLE WORLD SHAKES! --Ray

  3. My lottery airplane is a P51-D. It will never happen, but it does motivate me to buy the damn tickets!

  5. That's Jimmy Leewards' P-51, Cloud Dancer. He died in 2011 at the Reno Air Races when his plane crashed into the spectators.
