Riding High in 'Six-Shooter'

Today I flew in a P-51 Mustang!! It was a great ride.


I took the new 'Six Shooter' prints with me on the plane, in a crate stored in the port wing machine gun bay. So, now the prints have flown in the aircraft they depict (see post for 'Six-Shooter').


Some of the photos of the ride are seen in this slide show. A 90 year old WASP was on the flight before me and the prints were in the plane for that flight. In fact, the crates went on both rides, so they did a total of 8 barrel rolls!


As you will see in the pictures, we flew on the deck very fast, just like he did at the Reno air races. Amazing stuff.
