Frenesi in close formation with Miss Helen....

Lots flocked to see "Berlin Express" flying on the show Sunday. Only to be disappointed about the canopy incident of it cracking whilst flying on Saturday...

My first photo of this fine P-51D Mustang, originally built in 1944, opb USAAF as 44-73877. 1951 9279 for RCAF, 403sqc at Calgary. 1958 sold to the first civil owner as N6320T. April 29th 1968 N167F Finefrock, Oklahoma until damaged September 1st 1969 while taxing at air show in Texas, collided with another Mustang. Rebuilt and rejoined with Finefrock until 1980. September 1980 sold to Scandinavian Historic Flight, and rebuilt at Fort Colllins, Colorado. First post-restoration flight made in 1985. 2001 repainted, still N167F.. March 2nd 2015 G-SHWN Sharkmouth LTD, flown in RAF 112sqn , Duxford. Scanned from a slide

This is A-36A, 42-83738, is one of only three A-36 a/c still in existence. This a/c was restored by the Collings Foundation and won the Grand Champion Warbird Restoration award at the 2012 EAA convention.

This very patriotic coloured Mustang 'Miss America' (former 44-74536) is the most widely recognized Reno air racer. It has raced over 21 years and won the Reno Air Race back in 1994. Please note also the colour of the pilot's helmet.

Difficult to photograph clearly, given its suspended position in the crowded American Air Museum at Duxford. The original "Etta Jeanne II" was a P-51K variant (with an Aeroproducts propeller in place of the P-51D's Hamilton Standard one), which was lost when it ditched in the North Sea on 29 December 1944. The pilot, Capt. Huie H. Lamb, Jr., survived and was, fortunately, picked up from the frigid waters by an RAF Walrus amphibian.

The Maryland ANG flew the F-51H from 1951 until 1955, and these aircraft equipped an aerobatic team, the Guardian Angels, in 1952-53. The lightweight P-51H differed significantly from earlier Mustangs and was very fast, with a top speed of 760 kmh (472 mph). It did not see action in World War II nor in Korea. 555 Hs were completed out of 2000 ordered. The second aircraft is 44-64505 and the fourth one is 44-64453. The third is 44-64659 or perhaps 44-64559 - not 64-64859, as that serial belongs to a cancelled P-51H. Photo from: US Air Force
