So, is P-51B "Old Crow" pictured on the website a photo of Jack Roush's P-51B? That would be the first photo I've seen of it completed.

Does anybody know if it's been test-flown yet?


I've been trying to hunt some down to no avail. It does however look like i'm gonna have to haul out my white paint and take care of the wheels though. :wink:

Just that little photo of the P-51B, and I'm already drooling! :D
For me, this looks like a can't-miss show.

I'm hopeful, but the way Tom P and the EAA have treated Warbirds these last few years, I'm skeptical. Sorry, but I long for the days when they FLEW the warbirds, often.

Must have been pretty recently. Couldn't have gone to a better group of people though. Dave and the Schiffers are some of the best people I have met in the warbird world. The Corsair will definitely be in good hands and get LOTS of exercise with these folks.
