Got Doused

It was very, very cold, but felt very, very good!

Way to go!! P.s. I like that paint scheme on the Mustang, where is that one based?

[Dave Hadfield]

Thanks!

Busy 3 days at Vintage Wings of Canada. Flew there in the Fairchild, then test flew the Fox Moth and P-40. Did 2 trips in the Harvard, front and back seat. Then launched in the Mustang.

The Merlin in this one just purrrrs. At 2500 rpm you can hardly feel it's still running.

John just wasn't quite quick enough...

Congrats Dave, you guys just had too much fun this week.

Terry

[Dave Hadfield]

Thanks! You weren't exactly ground-bound yourself, Terry...

When I saw the header I kinda figured why, but I wasn't sure what type I was going to see. P-51 indeed! Congratulations Dave. Can we look forward to a comparison article VS the P-40?

Congratulations Dave! That sounds like a wonderful three days.

[Pogo]

Congrats!! Gotta find ways to cool off them red hot Mustang jocks...

[CAPFlyer]

Congratulations Dave! Time to go chasing Chris around the skies.

[PbyCat-Guy]

Congrats! What are prerequisites to get a checkout?

[Baldeagle]

Can we look forward to a comparison article VS the P-40?

Yes, would like to hear about that. Kermit used to say that the P-40 flew twice as nice as the P-51, and that the Spitfire flew twice as nice as the P-40.

I soloed my Tiger today!

Hope you don't mind me jumping on your band wagon Dave. Even if I didn't get doused
