what a nice paint scheme

[Yak 11 Fan]

Very nice, through my involvement with another 353rd FG marked Mustang I have been lucky enough to fly out in and out of the wartime 353rd base at Raydon. Can't wait to see the finished aircraft.

Thanks for the news Dave. Its been awhile since the Waukegan Airport was home to a Mustang!

[Dan K]

Ditto on the congrats, Dave! See you at KOSH.

I'm going to have to plan a visit to you guys this summer in the hot rods, if we can work something out.

[Sabremech]

Looking forward to Oshkosh this year. I think bringing the Mustang up is in our plans. Give us a call or an e-mail to schedule a time to come out and visit. Sharing these birds is the best part of our job.
