On Saturday, Fantasy of Flight held their 15th annual Mustangs and Mustangs event.
Ford Mustangs and P-51s. Hundreds of cars with P-51s flying also.
Day started out sunny but weather moved in by mid afternoon.
Special treat this year were several flyovers by B-29 FIFI coming from Sun N Fun.
Highlight of the day was Chuck and Kermit flying together just before the weather got there.

Some photos below.

That's not only a really nice pic, but you can really see the design differences between the B/C and D. windscreen, rear fuselage, gun placement, etc.
