It was amazing to meet Betty Bishop in person. Such an amazing woman. I was honored to fly the P-63 on dedication day. Right before contorting myself into the cockpit, I went over and asked Betty if I had her permission to fly “her” P-63, to which she replied, “as long as you don’t scratch it!”

John Willhoff got some great photos of us during the dedication day photo shoot. You can see the new nose art in the air! https://johnwillhoff.smugmug.com/The-Dixie-Wing-Fighters-fly-for-Betty-Bishop/

That is a very cool tribute.

Its also a very cool formation flight. All three of these planes used to wear white. 8)
