As I was just looking at the gathering of mustangs website I notice that Mark Huffstuter's N3333E is listed and the photo of it shows that the name on the nose, the fuselage code letters, and the part of the serial number that would reflect it as being Chuck Yeagers a/c have been removed... I know there are alot of different opinions about Yeager and I'm not trying to stir the pot, but it seems strange now in the last few years that 2 different mustangs that started out painted in this scheme had the markings removed in less than a year after being painted...
Just curious...

The paint on the airplane remains at this time, the photo was modified.
Nuff said.
